Transfer: Tottenham secure €60million deal for midfielder -

Tottenham Hotspur have reached a deal to sign Real Betis midfielder, Giovani Lo Celso, in a deal worth €60million, Goal reports.

The Spanish outfit are set to announce the Argentina international’s departure, after a breakthrough was made in the negotiations between the two clubs.

Lo Celso was pulled out of Betis’ squad for their friendly with Las Palmas on Wednesday.

He has been a target of Tottenham’s all summer, after his impressive loan spell from Paris Saint-Germain last season.

Betis took up the option to pay the €25m clause to secure the 23-year-old’s services at the end of the campaign and are now set to more than double their money in the space of three months.

Lo Celso made a total of 45 appearances for the Spanish side during his loan spell, scoring 16 goals for the club as Betis finished 10th in LaLiga.
