Tottenham are set to revive their interest in signing Real Betis star Giovani Lo Celso, according to the Mirror.
Earlier this month, negotiations between Spurs and Betis reportedly stalled after the Londoners’ initial bid was turned down.
But the Mirror claims Lo Celso is keen to play Champions League football under his countryman Mauricio Pochettino at Tottenham.
A release clause of £88 million has been mentioned in the past, but the Mirror believes Betis now value Lo Celso at around £70 million.
With that in mind, it looks like Spurs will have to break their transfer record for the second time in a matter of weeks to sign Lo Celso.
The 23-year-old scored 16 goals across all competitions last season, convincing Betis to make their loan deal with PSG permanent.
Betis now look likely to cash in on Lo Celso and the Liga Liga club is apparently close to signing Lyon captain Nabil Fekir as a replacement.
It’s difficult to understand how Tottenham will be able to afford Lo Celso unless Christian Eriksen is sold – the Dane has travelled with his teammates for the pre-season tour of Asia.

This deal was completed weeks ago. We’ve been waiting for Lo Celso to return from his holiday
Really! How do you know that?
THBN has the low down. The deal is complete just like Mike said. Another signing will also take place shortly.
This is going on too long arsenal might try to get him on loan if we don’t cough up the pretty green???????
Yet another midfielder when we are selling both full backs and our central defender let alone Ericsson. Rearly makes sense. Levy proving again we are a selling club and he is only here for the money. Stupid to offer llorente another deal whilst we lose Marcus Edwards stupid to keep sicknotes lamela and sissoko. Last season we believed this season we have nightmares and will be lucky to finish in top 8
I guess you don’t know what you’re talking about mr man
Clueless buffoon.
Sissoko sicknote??? Are you sure? Do you even watch Spurs?
What are you waiting for then. Get him ASP.
I think we should go for James Rodriguez instead
Sissoko a sick note ? Lol he was 1 of our top players last Season . Trust in Pochettino, he knows what players he wants n I’m sure Levy knows he had to deliver . Sessegnon n Lo Celso to arrive shortly n possibly 1 or 2 others . Pochettino is building for now n the future ?
Just get the players in and stop fart arsing around.Enough talk, more action.
Simple as that.
How come no one at the club has thought of that? You should call them and offer your expertise.
