Bryan Gil update emerges as Tottenham hope ‘in-depth evaulations’ lead to Bologna sale
Tottenham’s plans to move on Bryan Gil this summer may be under threat, as Bologna have decided to carry out extensive checks before making any move for the winger.
It is no news that Tottenham Hotspur are looking to part ways with Bryan Gil, who confirmed he would be departing Hotspur Way this summer, after having spent last season on loan at Spanish side Girona.
The winger’s momentum in La Liga last season was halted after he suffered a long-term injury that kept him out for a significant spell.
This summer, Tottenham have been actively seeking a buyer for Gil, with discussions reportedly held between Spurs and Bologna following meetings with the Serie A club’s officials.
Despite initial progress in talks, Gil’s future remains uncertain as doubts have started to creep in from the Italian side’s camp.
Bologna reconsider paying Tottenham for Bryan Gil transfer
Reports earlier in the week suggested Bologna had a draft agreement in place for the signing of Gil from Tottenham Hotspur.
However, Corriere dello Sport (as relayed by Sport Witness) now claim that the Italian side are reconsidering their stance.
It is believed that Gil is just one of several names on Bologna’s shortlist, with the club also monitoring other wingers to replace the departed Dan Ndoye.
While Tottenham’s asking price is said to be within reach and the Spaniard’s playing style is appreciated, concerns over his fitness have prompted the Italians to carry out ‘in-depth evaluations’ before committing to a deal.
Bologna’s cautious approach could scupper Spurs deal
Spurs were prepared to loan Bryan Gil to Bologna this summer, with an option to make the move permanent if certain conditions were met. However, the arrangement is now at risk due to the winger’s ongoing fitness issues.
It is understood that Bologna has yet to make a final call on their pursuit of the Tottenham man, with his injury record proving to be a sticking point.
The club’s sporting director, Giovanni Sartori, is expected to continue assessing other potential signings before finalising any move for a winger later in the transfer window.
