Lo Celso looks to be on his way out of Tottenham
The writing appears on the wall for Lo Celso at Spurs, with many outlets suggesting that the midfielder’s five-year stay at Hotspur Way is expected to come to an end this summer (The Times).
A return to Betis continues to be mooted as a possibility for the midfielder, who left the La Liga club to come to the North London side back in 2019.
Just a few days ago, the print edition of ABC (as relayed by Sport Witness) suggested that Manuel Pellegrini’s men consider this summer an ideal time to bring the 28-year-old back to the club, having never lost touch with the player since he departed.

Bartra asks for Messi’s help to land Lo Celso
The report added that Tottenham want €15m for the Argentine while Betis are hoping to conclude a deal for around €10m.
Bartra has now commented on Messi’s Instagram post, which showed the former Barca and PSG star celebrating his 37th birthday alongside Lo Celso and his teammates.
The centre-back commented on the post: “Happy birthday Leo!! ???? ???? ???? and tell the one wearing the cap backwards (Lo Celso) to come yaa ???? ???? ????”
It is clear that Betis are pulling out all the stops to land Lo Celso this summer and would one expect the negotiations between the La Liga club and Spurs to accelerate once Copa America is over.
I imagine £15m or so would land you Lo Celso this summer, and he is a much better player than that price so someone will get a very good deal.
