Tottenham are reportedly tracking Giovani Lo Celso.
Tottenham Hotspur made their first move of the transfer window this week by making a bid for Real Betis midfielder Giovani Lo Celso.
While BBC Sport reported their opening bid was rejected, there is plenty of time to revisit their interest.
Lo Celso had a terrific season, scoring 16 goals for Betis and providing 11 assists.
His performance against Barcelona early in the season caught the eye of Spanish football pundit Guillem Balague, who described him as ‘extraordinary’.
It seems remarkable that Paris Saint-Germain sent Lo Celso out on loan this season, and Betis were quick to activate the purchase option.
Betis can now turn a big profit on Lo Celso and sell him for triple the price they paid.
Tottenham are not the only club interested, and it will be a surprise if he is still at Betis by the start of next season.
