Real Betis are working on the signings of Borja Iglesias, Alex Moreno and a goalkeeper, but they have also lined up Lyon playmaker Nabil Fekir as a possible replacement for Giovani Lo Celso.
The Argentine midfielder is Tottenham Hotspur's main target as they look to wrap up a deal before the close of the Premier League's transfer window on August 8.
MARCA can confirm that Fekir is on Betis' wish list, and with just one year left on his contract, he may be available for a price lower than Transfermarkt's valuation of him, which is 60 million euros.
Fekir plays in a position that is very similar to Lo Celso and their styles are comparable too. They are both excellent dribblers who use skills, pace and vision to make an impact on matches. Their versatility in attacking positions is a huge asset, and Rubi would surely love to have Fekir at his disposal.
A delegation from Betis have travelled to France to see whether the player would be keen on moving to the Estadio Benito Villamarin, with Fekir always having stated his desire to play in Spain. The 25-year-old's agents are aware of Los Verdiblancos' interest, though the move would only occur if Lo Celso departs.

Of course, a Ligue 1 star is going to change the Lyon of the Champions League for the Betis simpaticón XD. This is more smoke than Rabiot and Ziyech together.

I find it strange that there is no more fuss about Fekir and Thauvin when last year half of Europe wanted both of them and they have not had a bad season.

Good pair would do with Rabiot ... haha Let's see, ask price is not wanting to sign him, the Betis if it goes out Celso is not going to spend 60 million on this ... He has just asked, as asked by Rabiot ... and How could I ask for a price for a chalet even knowing that I do not have money to buy it ...
