Tottenham to Return With Improved Offer for Giovani Lo Celso After £53m Bid Is Rejected

Tottenham Hotspur are readying another offer for Real Betis star Giovani Lo Celso, after their initial proposal was rebuffed by the La Liga side.

Spurs' opening £53m bid was swiftly turned down by Betis, who are in no rush to part ways with one of their most exciting talents.

According to The Mirror, Betis are waiting for a side to activate Lo Celso's £88.9m release clause, so Spurs are ready to return with a higher bid in an attempt to convince Betis to sell.

The La Liga side are eager to see Lo Celso impress with Argentina at this summer's Copa America, in the hope that that will spark a bidding war between a number of interested sides.
