Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keen on signing Jacob Ramsey from Aston Villa in a part-exchange deal by offering Giovani Lo Celso this summer.
According to a report from The Times, Tottenham Hotspur submitted an offer to sign Aston Villa midfielder Jacob Ramsey, and they included Giovani Lo Celso as a part of the part-exchange deal. However, the West Midlands club have decided to turn down the offer for the prospect they value at £40-50 million.

Ramsey would be a long-term addition
Ramsey is unlikely to get regular game time at Aston Villa next season, and leaving the club could be ideal for him. If Tottenham can provide him with the necessary assurances, a move to the North London club will be an exciting opportunity for the player.
