Sergio Reguilon is not the only Tottenham Hotspur player Sevilla want this summer, with La Razon in Spain reporting that they are also in the race to sign Giovani Lo Celso.

Sevilla are looking to re-sign Reguilon after loaning Ludwig Augustinsson to Aston Villa. Reguilon is one of the first-team players Antonio Conte has not taken to South Korea for Spurs’ pre-season tour.

The Spain international also spent some time with Julen Lopetegui’s men before joining Tottenham. So you would imagine that he may relish the chance to return if he is out of favour in North London.

And he may be joined by a Tottenham teammate should he make the switch.

La Razon reports that Sevilla are also keen on Lo Celso.

The Argentinian is currently in talks with Villarreal. Reports have claimed that he is their top target following his loan spell with the Yellow Submarine last season.

Unai Emery’s men want to pay just over £15 million for the midfielder. Spurs meanwhile, would like over £21 million for the 26-year-old. And with that, Sevilla are willing to make a bid for the former Real Betis star.

Sevilla want Giovani Lo Celso

Tottenham will welcome the greater interest in Lo Celso. It appears that he is not in Conte’s plans ahead of this coming season. But they will also not want to sell him on the cheap.

The more interest in him, the more likely it is that Spurs will get a fee that they are looking for.

Lo Celso is a ‘magnificent‘ player. And a bidding war could start in the near future.

Sevilla joining Villarreal in the race increases the likelihood of Lo Celso leaving Tottenham in this window, at the very least.
