Man Utd rival Spurs for Real Betis midfielder Giovani Lo Celso

Manchester United have joined the battle for Real Betis midfielder Giovani Lo Celso.

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino is keen on striking a deal for the Argentine international, who is currently away at Copa America, as he overhauls his squad this summer.

But Marca says Lo Celso is among a list of targets for the United boss and they will look to challenge Tottenham for his signature.

Lo Celso joined Betis on a permanent deal a year ago but is wanted by Spurs as a replacement for Christian Eriksen.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants to bring in midfield options this summer and that search will intensify if Paul Pogba gets his wish and leaves the club.
