Tottenham Hotspur let Alejo Véliz join Espanyol on a loan deal in the summer and his future there remains uncertain.
The striker has four goals from 15 games and his game time has been restricted since the start of November.
On Friday, La Grada Ràdio reported the Tottenham man is willing to leave the La Liga side in January.
AS also state the 21-year-old’s loan stay could be cut short in the winter market because he has ‘lost the trust’ of Espanyol manager Manolo González. They need to offload some players to make room in their squad and wage bill, to sign new players.
Taking this into account, the Argentina U21 international would be the one to most likely to leave the Spanish club.
A fresh report from La Grada Ràdio brings the latest on the Tottenham owned player’s situation. They also state Espanyol have ‘practically closed’ the exit of two players and Véliz is one of them.
It’s further claimed Ange Postecoglou’s side have ‘proposed’ Lucas Bergvall, likely on loan. This is a surprise claim and it’s not clear whether the 18-year-old Sweden international would be open to this idea.
Despite being offered Bergvall, Espanyol sporting director Fran Garagarza wants to focus on the Spanish market.
It’s not clear whether Bergvall will join Espanyol, but these two reports indicate Véliz is heading towards their exit door.
