SHOCKING NEWS;Lo Celso rejected Betis terms and conditions and insisted leaving due to

The full details have emerged on Tottenham’s potential future capture of Real Betis midfielder Johnny Cardoso following his involvement in Giovani Lo Celso’s return to the LaLiga club on deadline day.

Lo Celso signed a three-year deal to return to Betis on Friday for a bargain fee of €5million after the Argentine failed to convince Ange Postecoglou is he was worthy regular spot on the bench at the very best.

However, part of that deal saw Tottenham also have a special clause inserted to sign USA international Johnny Cardoso, who is regarded as one of Los Verdiblancos’ highest-value players.

Cardoso joined Betis from Internacional in January in a deal worth £5m (€6m, $6.6m) and, during his time in LaLiga, the defensive midfield pivot has shown himself to be a strong addition to the side.

And now the details have been revealed over the future clause Tottenham have in place for the talented 22-year-old.

Reports from Spain claim that the clause is worth in the region of £21-25m (€25-30m, $27-33m), so Betis would have to accept this amount if Tottenham opt to take up their option. Furthermore, the clause is activated next summer but cannot go beyond September 2025, by which time it becomes redundant.

Cardoso tipped to be big hit at Tottenham

If Cardoso does indeed complete a switch to north London, European football expert Andy Brassell is convinced that Spurs will have done an excellent piece of business.

Speaking about Lo Celso’s return to Betis, Brassell described Cardoso as a player perfect for English football who could take his place in Tottenham’s midfield for years to come.

He said: “The interesting thing is this [Lo Celso’s move] might help Tottenham negotiate an option, it seems, for Johnny Cardoso.
