Tottenham’s transfer plans this summer will involve both incomings and outgoings and one expensive signing from the Pochettino era.

Ange Postecoglou is hoping to get some backing from Daniel Levy this summer and extra funds could be raised by Spurs selling a few players as well.

The Spurs manager has made no secret of his desire to improve the squad further and he’s not been shy in suggesting some players might have to move on as well.

In the current Tottenham squad, there are a number of players who haven’t featured as much as they’d have liked under Postecoglou.

The likes of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Ryan Sessegnon are among the players who could go, while Oliver Skipp is another in midfield who could look for an exit.

Another name who could also be on the move is £55m signing, Giovani Lo Celso.

And according to a report from Estadio Deportivo, former club Real Betis are super keen on taking the Argentinian back.

Giovani Lo Celso could leave Tottenham with La Liga outfit keen

According to the report from Estadio Deportivo, Real Betis are keen on the idea of bringing Lo Celso back to the club.

Their report features quotes from sporting director Manu Fajardo, who suggests a return for Lo Celso is something Betis would be keen on.

“Giovani is a player who has already shown his worth here, who continues to do so when he goes with the Argentina national team and who is also complementary to Nabil Fekir. Being able to opt for players like Lo Celso or similar profiles does not have to imply the departure of Nabil,” he said.

In terms of Lo Celso’s future, a move away this summer could well be what’s needed.

The midfielder has made just the 19 appearances this season and only actually started games four times.

With a World Cup in 2026, Lo Celso is likely to want to be playing football and settled somewhere before then.

Tottenham, then, could do him a favour here by selling him.
