Spanish club set to sign Tottenham star, negotiations ongoing
The latest buzz in the transfer market suggests that Giovani Lo Celso might be heading back to Real Betis, with talks between the player and the Spanish club reportedly heating up.
Lo Celso, who is approaching the final year of his contract with Tottenham Hotspur, seems destined for a summer departure from the Premier League outfit.
Recent reports from Estadio Deportivo indicate that discussions are ongoing between Lo Celso and Real Betis, indicating the club's keen interest in re-signing the Argentine midfielder.
Betis is reportedly making Lo Celso's return a top priority, signaling their ambition to bolster their squad ahead of the upcoming season.
While Lo Celso has been a solid performer for Tottenham during his five-year stint, it appears that his time in North London could be drawing to a close.
The prospect of reuniting with his former club seems to be gaining traction, with Betis reportedly working behind the scenes to facilitate the transfer.
According to sources, Betis sporting director Manu Fajardo and his team are actively pursuing a deal for Lo Celso, with the La Liga side eager to bring back their former player.

It is believed that Betis is hopeful of securing funds from the potential sale of Nabil Fekir to Al-Ittihad, with the intention of using the proceeds to finance Lo Celso's acquisition.
Lo Celso's willingness to entertain the idea of returning to Betis has also fueled speculation about the transfer. The Argentine midfielder is said to be in contact with Betis directors and appears open to the prospect of rejoining his former club.
With just a year remaining on his contract, Lo Celso holds significant leverage in negotiations, with the option to leave Tottenham on a free transfer next summer.
However, if Betis can meet his salary demands and offer him the opportunity for regular first-team football, a return to the Spanish outfit could be on the cards.
While other clubs may also be interested in Lo Celso's services, Betis seems to have emerged as the frontrunners in the race for his signature. It remains to be seen whether the Argentine midfielder will indeed make a sensational return to the Benito Villamarin Stadium next season.
