Reports of a swap deal between Tottenham and Sevilla for Lamela and Spain international Gil have been gathering pace in the last week. Gil, meanwhile, is at the Tokyo Olympics with Spain and started in his side's 1-0 win over Australia on Sunday. But the Argentine has not quite had the impact he or Spurs would have hoped for. He is set to leave Tottenham after making 257 appearances in all competitions in eight seasons, scoring 37 goals and providing 47 assists. Tottenham are paying Sevilla £21m to get Gil, who spent last season on loan at Eibar in LaLiga
