Espanyol’s transfer market continues to move and, after the rumours that Kral is in the orbit of the Espanyol, now there are others who point to a new name. The blue and white club is clear that must reinforce the attacking front after the departure of Martin Braithwaite and Alejo Véliz is the footballer who is being strongly linked with signing in the next few hours.
Both Fabrizio Romano and Matteo Moretto, specialists in the transfer market, point out that the Argentine striker is the chosen one by Espanyol to be their first signing in the centre forward position. Véliz would arrive through a loan, one of the few options that the white and blue club has this season to be able to reinforce the team taking into account the economic difficulties that it is going through.
The Argentine, moreover, would return to La Liga. Last season he was already on loan at Sevilla, where he arrived in February. and he was barely able to take part due to the delicate situation that the Seville club was going through. In addition, he was clearly outclassed by the starting duo that Quique Sánchez Flores had under his belt: Isaac Romero and En-Nesyri.
According to reports, the player is already in Barcelona, waiting for his arrival to be confirmed, and he would sign for one season. From July, Véliz should return to Tottenham, with whom he has a contract until June 2029. The Argentine was a club bet for the ‘spurs’, but at 20 years old he has hardly been able to have much participation with the team.
Véliz hopes that he will have more opportunities at Espanyol. For the moment, he would be the only signing in the team’s offensive department, while waiting for another forward to arrive on loan.
