Erik Lamela is reportedly close to joining Sevilla from Tottenham in a swap deal.
Per a tweet by transfer news journalist Fabrizio Romano, Tottenham and Sevilla are finalizing a deal which would see Lamela join Sevilla in exchange for Bryan Gil. In addition, Sevilla would receive 25 million plus add ons.
Already 29 years of age, should Lamela join Sevilla, he would play alongside Argentina Copa America winners Marcos Acuña and Alejandro “Papu” Gómez in addition to Lucas Ocampos.
Lamela joined Tottenham back in 2013 from Roma and has taken part in over 150 league matches while also winning last season’s Premier League Goal of the Season with a rabona vs. Arsenal.
