Spurs transfer news: Tottenham and Betis £15m apart in Lo Celso valuation

Tottenham and Real Betis are £15million apart in the valuation of Argentine Giovani Lo Celso, according to Marca (h/t Daily Mail).

The Argentine midfielder has been linked with Spurs throughout the summer and Mauricio Pochettino does not have a lot of time to complete the deal.

The English transfer window shuts on Thursday, while foreign clubs can buy and sell players until the end of the month.

The report claims that Betis value the 23-year-old at £65m while Tottenham have not bid more than £50m.

The 23-year-old has been offered a lucrative contract by Spurs and is open to playing in England, however, is content with his current team (h/t Daily Mail).

Lo Celso was great for Betis last season and made his move from PSG permanent in the summer. The Argentine can play in several positions and could be the goalscorer we need in the midfield.

The 23-year-old scored nine times and provided five assists for Betis in the league last season.

Spurs need to wrap things fast

Adding Lo Celso to the team would be great but things have gone slow after the signings of Tanguy Ndombele and Jack Clarke.

Tottenham have a couple of days to finalise any deals and hopefully, we get the right players into the team.

Spurs have already sold the likes of Kieran Trippier and Vincent Janssen, and it is to be seen what other deals could be completed before the transfer deadline.
