Villarreal and Tottenham plan Pau Torres-Lo Celso swap deal

According to 'Marca', Tottenham's board are interested in signing Pau Torres, one of Villarreal's star players last season.

Antonio Conte, coach of Spurs, wants to reinforce his team's defensive line and the Spanish defender would fit in perfectly with the Italian coach's idea of the game. However, the two clubs will have to sit down and negotiate.

Villarreal's board would be willing to discuss with Tottenham over Pau's situation, but in exchange they will ask for the transfer of Lo Celso. The Argentinian, who still belongs to the Londoners, could be the key to signing the defender.

For now there is nothing officially confirmed, but what is certain is that the former Rosario Central player would enter into negotiations for the Spaniard. Tottenham want 20 million for the transfer of the Argentine, but the interest in the defender could benefit Villarreal, who would not have to pay anything for Lo Celso.
