Giovani Lo Celso wants a staggering salary to leave Tottenham, which, given Lazio’s interest, may scupper chances of joining a Serie A club.
According to Corriere dello Sport via Sport Witness, Giovani Lo Celso’s staggering salary demands could force Serie A clubs to bow out of the chase for the Argentine midfielder. Lazio are credited with an interest that is unlikely to match the Copa America winner’s demands, while he also remains linked with Aston Villa.
Giovani Lo Celso’s salary demands
Giovani Lo Celso could be seen as a loss-making investment by Tottenham, who paid a huge fee to sign him from Real Betis many years ago. He has gone on to play for other clubs on different loan spells and barely found a way through into the plans of many Spurs managers.
Last season, he briefly began impressing Ange Postecoglou, but soon, his performances waned as he finished the campaign on the periphery of the Tottenham first team. Overall, he does not have a future at the club, with Spurs set to put him up for sale.
The report discusses Serie A’s interest, particularly that of Lazio, which is keen to recruit the Argentine star. Spurs are insisted on accepting a €10 million fee to sell Lo Celso. However, his staggering wage demands of €4-5 million per season after taxes could put the Rome club and many others off the trail of the Argentine.
Lazio certainly won’t entertain those demands from the player and are likely to move on to other targets. Whether Lo Celso was keen on a move to Rome or any of the Italian clubs also remains the question, although there’s absolute certainty that Spurs are eager to get rid of him.
Aston Villa links explained
While the Italian media linked Lo Celso to a move to Serie A, their English counterparts suggest the Argentine midfielder is close to joining Aston Villa in a part-exchange deal. Tottenham are in talks to sign Jacob Ramsey, with Lo Celso and the best part of £19 million going the other way to the Birmingham side.
Unai Emery worked with Lo Celso during his successful spell at Villarreal, and the pair won the Europa League that season. With Villa entering a new realm and a season with Champions League football, Emery would want experienced heads like the Argentine, who knows his system and style of play well.
