Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Villarreal will attempt to sign Tottenham midfielder Giovani Lo Celso, but the move will depend on other deals materialising alongside it. 

Tottenham are said to have shortlisted Lo Celso as one of the players to offload ahead of Monday’s transfer deadline in order to clear space for potential incomings (Evening Standard).

L’Equipe reported on Friday that Lyon had emerged as a prime suitor to sign the 25-year-old on loan this month, however, he rejected the proposal on Saturday (RMC Sport – Loic Tanzi). 

Now, Villarreal are waiting in the wings to secure a potential deal for Lo Celso, according to Romano, although there are some caveats to contend with. 

The transfer guru has claimed that while Lo Celso is keen on making the move back to La Liga, where he enjoyed a two-year stint with Real Betis, the process will depend on other moves happening along the way. 

Fabrizio Romano previously reported that Giovani Lo Celso was hoping to secure a move to Villarreal after rejecting Lyon.

Villarreal will try for Gio Lo Celso deal as revealed yesterday. It depends on other deals – it’s like a domino but Lo Celso’s understood to be keen on the move. #THFC

OL and Tottenham had an agreement for Lo Celso on loan but player didn’t accept. #Villarreal https://t.co/AGNPw7vsB9

Spurs Web Opinion 

Spurs are lucky that they have another club interested in taking Lo Celso otherwise it would have been a tricky situation to manage. He likely will have known that Villarreal were interested, though, so a move back to Spain was always going to be his preferred choice in this scenario.
