22-year-old Tottenham star’s future is in doubt due to the arrival of Timo Werner
Tottenham Hotspur have finally managed to land 27-year-old Timo Werner on a loan deal. The German forward will be counted on to contribute in the absence of Heung-Min Son who is currently participating in the Asian Cup for South Korea.
People at the club and the fans have been very happy about Werner’s signing. However, there is one player in particular who will suffer due to the German’s arrival. 22-year-old Bryan Gil will fall even further down the pecking order due to Timo’s arrival.
Despite having a depleted roster Postecoglou has only called on Gil to make nine appearances for the club this season. Now, he will get even less because of the new forward in town. According to Spanish publication Estadio Deporvito, Tottenham are open to letting the Spaniard go this January.
There has already been some talk of AFC Fiorentina looking into the possibility of signing the 22-year-old star. However, we believe that Tottenham will be looking to offload the player on a permanent deal instead of a loan.
Gil has been a non-factor during his stint with the Lilywhites. Over 40 appearances the Spanish winger has only managed to grab two assists and is yet to score a single goal for the team.
When he is putting up numbers this weak it does not come as a surprise that the Spurs are now looking to get rid of him. It doesn’t mean that Gil is a bad player, he just hasn’t been able to adapt to the Premier League which will happen over time. But, it will most likely not happen at Tottenham.

Tottenham paid a total of £21.6m for the Spanish winger back in 2021. Getting the same amount back will be difficult for the team but they will most likely try to break even if a sale for Gil is completed this January.
