Spurs have been busy adding players to Antonio Conte’s squad this summer as they’ve signed six players to bolster his options. Now the club are looking to sell players w🌄ho don’t feature in the Italian’s plans and Lo Celso definitely seems to fit that description.

A move back to Vill🔯arreal makes perfect sense for the player considering how well he played there last season and as the deal looks to be a permanent move, rather than a loan, Spurs will also𝄹 be happy to part ways with the Argentine.

It just hasn’t worked out for Lo Celso at Tottenham, de🉐spite some promising displaysꦇ when he first joined the club. The Argentine is clearly a talented player and needs to move on for regular first-team football.
