Some Tottenham Hotspur fans on Twitter are excited by the prospect of potentially signing Giovani Lo Celso this summer.

According to Diario de Sevilla, Real Betis have turned down a £53 million offer from Spurs for the Argentine midfielder.

But the report adds that Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino is a fan of the 23-year-old, who only joined Betis last month from Paris Saint-Germain.

The North Londoners have been linked with a number of midfielders this month already, from Jack Grealish, to Andre Gomes, to Tanguy Ndombele.

Here’s how Lilywhites fans reacted to the Lo Celso rumour:
