Villarreal have completed a deal to bring Giovani Lo Celso back to La Liga as part of a deadline day loan deal.
The Yellow Submarine have been working on the details of a move with Tottenham in recent days after Lo Celso slipped down the pecking order under Antonio Conte in recent weeks.
Spurs have now confirmed a deal has been reached between the two clubs, with the former Real Betis star signing a six month loan contract, until the end of the 2021/22 campaign.
The agreement does not include a purchase option on the Argentina international but Villarreal are rumoured to be open to a permanent deal this summer.
Giovani Lo Celso has joined La Liga side Villarreal on loan for the remainder of the season.
Good luck, Gio! 🤝
