Bryan Gil is reportedly set to leave Tottenham Hotspur once again this month, with Lazio showing interest in the winger.

That’s according to Italian outlet Corriere dello Sport, which claims that Bryan Gil simply doesn’t feature in Ange Postecoglou’s plans.

Gil has made a total of 10 appearances for Spurs this season but is yet to nail down a place in Postecoglou’s side.

The 22-year-old has managed just two starts which came against Manchester City and Aston Villa.

It’s fair to say that Gil didn’t exactly pull up any trees in either game and has since fallen further down the pecking order following Timo Werner’s arrival.

The Spaniard has been linked with a move to Lazio and Maurizio Sarri is said to be pushing for a deal to sign him. 

And reports in Italy have claimed that Tottenham are willing to offload the winger this month.

Gil set to leave Tottenham in January

Corriere dello Sport claims that Sarri was eyeing a move for Gil over the summer.

The winger is now set to leave Spurs once again after returning from a loan spell at Sevilla last season.

But it’s noted that Gil is ‘out of the plans’ at Spurs and the club are willing to offload him.

Gil completed a switch to Spurs from Sevilla for a fee worth £22 million back in the summer of 2021, in a deal which saw Erik Lamela go the other way. 

It just hasn’t quite happened for the youngster in north London and he’s already been sent out on loan twice.

It’s quite telling that Postecoglou opted to start Werner over the Spaniard in the 2-2 draw at Old Trafford nine days ago, despite the German only training with the Spurs squad for a couple of days beforehand.

Manor Solomon is also eyeing a return to action against Manchester City this Friday while Heung-Min Son will return from the Asian Cup next month.

That could mean that Spurs can afford to offload Gil without leaving Postecoglou short of options out wide and a move may be for the best for both parties.
