Green light: Tottenham player has given green light to join league winners – Needs Spurs to change transfer stance
Italian outlet TuttoMercatoWeb today shares some information on Napoli’s wish to sign Giovani Lo Celso from Tottenham Hotspur.
The story is about the Serie A club having to replace Piotr Zielinski, who’s leaving for Al-Ahli. Then it’s said that as they try to reinforce their midfield, the Argentine is one of the targets.
The reason for that is Lo Celso’s desire, as he’s said to be keen on joining the Serie A champions. That may end up convincing Spurs to accept the loan.
The midfielder has been heavily linked to a move out of Tottenham this summer, as besides Napoli, Real Sociedad are said to be interested in his transfer as well.
That can only be good for Spurs, as with more offers on the table, clubs are likely to show better conditions to win the race for the player.
His contract with the London side runs until 2025.

Player who wants Tottenham transfer turns down another club – Effort from Levy needed to get deal done
In the past few weeks, the Spanish made has made Clement Lenglet’s situation at Barcelona very clear.
It was said Tottenham Hotspur were not willing to pay for his permanent transfer, and with Barça focused on making a sale, they’d try to send him to Saudi Arabia.
It turns out that according to Mundo Deportivo today, Lenglet doesn’t want that move. Now club chiefs Mateu Alemany and Deco are holding a meeting to handle that situation.
Al-Nassr are offering Barcelona €10m plus €5m in bonuses to get the transfer done. The Catalan side want to take it, but don’t have his approval.
Lenglet’s departure is said to be ‘key’ for the club to make other signings, and that’s why they’re so worried about his stance.
This situation undoubtedly creates a great opportunity for Tottenham, as they may end up being the only option that pleases the defender.
Previous reports from Spain already claimed that the player is keen on returning to Spurs, where he stayed on loan during the last season.
Now it seems Daniel Levy needs to enter the scene and make an interesting offer.
