It doesn’t seem as if Giovani lo Celso has a future at Tottenham Hotspur, with reports from Argentina making his situation clear.

He made a fleeting impact in the absence of James Maddison last season, but the Argentine wasn’t part of the squad for their 1-1 draw against Leicester City earlier this week.

As days tick down for the summer transfer window to close, Lo Celso could well be scrambling to seek a move.

Ole in Argentina report that Lo Celso ‘desires a new destiny’, suggesting that he wants to leave the club. As far as Ole, the country’s premier sports newspaper, have it, Ange Postecoglou isn’t considering the player this season.

Aston Villa have been mentioned as a potential candidate, with interest from Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce also getting a mention.

Interest from Aston Villa is encouraged by Unai Emery having managed him at Villarreal, where Lo Celso enjoyed a bit of a renaissance in his loan spell in Spain.

That is why a move to Villa could interest Lo Celso, who is also a potential target for Saudi Arabia side Al Qadsiah, who like Paulo Dybala but have the Tottenham man as an alternative.

Ole seem more excited by the Aston Villa chance, and Lo Celso working under Emery.
