the future of Young Lo Celso is still up in the air, once the Argentine was, along with the former Sevilla player Sergio Reguilonone of the players that Tottenham left on the ground when days ago he left for his tour of South Korea.
Dismissal of Antonio Conte for the next course, Lo Celso has known for months that he will have to find a new destination. In fact, that’s why he went out on loan last January to Villarreal CF, where he ended up becoming a key player in Unai Emery’s plans. A technician, the one from Hondarribia, who is counting on him for the next course, although the economic difficulties of the market have prevented him from being tied for the time being.
Tottenham signed Lo Celso three years ago in exchange for 48 million euros, in an operation in which he paid Betis 16 for his transfer and then exercise his definitive purchase option for another 32 kilos. The English, now, do not want to lose too much money, although it seems impossible, seeing how the market is.
Villarreal CF has been trying to close it for weeks, although it has not quite met the demands of the Londoners, who want to release it in exchange for some 20-25 million euros. Something more than expected, when in Castellón they were talking about 18 million to finish taking over the services of the Argentine.
In the Villarreal CF They hoped to have the money from Danjuma to be able to go for Lo Celso, among others, but the striker has ruled out the option of going to West Ham and, for now, everything is paralyzed.
Fiorentina thinks of Lo Celso, offered to Sevilla FC and who gives priority to Unai Emery’s Villarreal CF
In Italy, meanwhile, they try to take advantage of this situation to get hold of the Argentine. According to The nation, Fiorentina would be very interested in hiring the Albiceleste international, who would meet there with his compatriots Nicolás González and Lucas Martínez Quarta. The economic aspect, however, would be a problem, thinking the ‘Fiore’, more, in a transfer with a non-mandatory purchase option than in a pure and simple transfer.
Tottenham, for its part, prefers to definitively part with the footballer, hence it is not surprising that various English media speak of what they would have offered to Sevilla FC, like Reguilón, in his attempt to win Jules Koundé. And it is that the French center-back would be one of the center-backs in the ‘Spurs’ orbit, which has already reinforced the axis of its defense with another ex-Sevillista, Clement Lenglet.
For now, both Lo Celso and those around him understand that returning to LaLiga is what interests him the most, since Spanish football is better suited to his style of play, as he has already shown with the Real Betis and with Villarreal CF. According to different information from Argentina, from the coaching staff of the Argentine national team, led by Lionel Scaloni, they would have recommended to Giovani Lo Celso that the best option would be to continue at Villarreal CF, where he has been very important for Emery and what It would ensure his presence at the World Cup in Qatar next December.
