Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Giovani Lo Celso has been heavily linked with a move away from the London club this summer.
The 26-year-old Argentine international will be desperate to secure a move away from the Premier League in search of regular game time and Villarreal are thought to be keen on signing the player permanently.
The playmaker was on loan at the Spanish club last season and he helped them reach the semifinals of the Champions League.
His performances impressed manager Unai Emery and the former Arsenal boss is looking to bring the player back to the club before the window closes.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has now shared an update on the 26-year-old’s future.
Apparently, Spurs and Villarreal are working on a move for the midfielder and the transfer is getting closer.
The Argentine could join Villarreal on loan again but with an option to buy.
Meanwhile, midfielder Tanguy Ndombele has been linked with a move to the Spanish club as well. If the Frenchman ends up joining the La Liga side this summer, it will be a loan deal with an option to buy.
Both players have fallen down the pecking order at the London club and they need to leave in order to play more often. A move to Spain could be ideal for them this summer.
