Tottenham consider swap deal as part of Pau Torres transfer

Tottenham are again exploring the possibility of signing Villarreal centre-back Pau Torres.

Sky Italia reports that the move between Tottenham and the La Liga club could involve Giovani Lo Celso as part of a deal for Torres this summer.

Lo Celso (26) joined Villarreal on loan for the second half of the 2021/22 season from Spurs, impressing for Unai Emery’s side on their Champions League run.

Villarreal are not hugely in favour of this type of operation, as they usually prefer to do straight deals.

Last season Spurs made an offer for the 25-year-old Villarreal defender, which exceeded €45 million, but Torres stayed at La Cerámica.

Manchester United, and Manchester City are also being considered as possible destinations.

Antonio Conte’s team, unlike last season, offers the player the possibility of playing in the Champions League.

Torres recently stated that the only real offer he had was the one he had from Villarreal to renew his contract.
