Tottenham: Alejo Veliz to join Sevilla on loan as Spurs wait on Lucas Bergvall decision

Tottenham striker Alejo Veliz is travelling to Spain to complete a medical and join La Liga club Sevilla on loan until the end of the season.

Spurs have agreed to let the 20-year-old Argentine go after receiving assurances he will get game time in Spain. There is no option to buy in the agreement.

Veliz is yet to start for Spurs since a summer move from Argentine club Rosario Central in the summer and Dane Scarlett's return from a loan spell at Ipswich has potentially forced the Argentina youth international down the pecking order in Ange Postecoglou's squad.

Meanwhile, Tottenham are still waiting on Swedish wonderkid Lucas Bergvall to decide between them and Barcelona but a deal does not necessarily have to be agreed before today's 11pm deadline.

Spurs have agreed a deal with Djurgardens, worth around £8.5million, that would see the 17-year-old midfielder move in the summer, so there is no pressure for Bergvall to make a decision today.

Bergvall visited Spurs' training ground on Monday but was in Barcelona last night, with both clubs pushing hard to sign the teenager.
