According to La Razon, Valencia remain interested in signing Bryan Gil from Tottenham, and the winger himself is keen on a return to Spain.
Tottenham could lose Bryan Gil
Last season, Spurs sent the £83,000-a-week man on loan to Valencia, where he became a fan favourite.
Gil earned comparisons to Lionel Messi during his time at the Mestalla, where hundreds of supporters were filmed chanting for him to stay at the club.
Unfortunately for them, Tottenham welcomed the 21-year-old back into the squad, with Antonio Conte handing the youngster his first action of the season in last night’s 0-0 draw against Eintracht Frankfurt.
However, Gil remains unsatisfied with life in north London, and is said to be crazy about a return to Valencia.
La Razon believe Tottenham and Valencia are destined to come to an agreement given the circumstances, although the Spanish news outlet do not mention whether any deal would be another loan, or a permanent move.
Gil has only played 12 minutes of football this season, with Conte seen shouting at him last night after he was outmuscled against Eintracht Frankfurt.
Tottenham should sell Bryan Gil
In our view, it would be best if Tottenham and Gil went their separate ways.
The Spain international is a brilliant footballer, although he was not signed by Conte, and the Italian seemingly has no interested in giving him time to develop.
At the age of 21, this is a pivotal period in the Spaniard’s career in terms of his development, so it would be unfair of Spurs to keep him against his will for the sake of being a squad option.
Of course, Valencia must make it worthwhile from a financial aspect though, or else Daniel Levy will not be moved.
Hopefully, all parties can come to an agreement, and Gil gets his desired return to Valencia in 2023.
