LaLiga club express interest in Tottenham winger Lucas Moura | OneFootball

Real Betis have reportedly expressed an interest in Tottenham winger Lucas Moura.

Lucas joined the club in January from PSG for a reported €25m but has since struggled to establish himself under Mauricio Pochettino.

The 26-year-old started Spurs’ opening fixture against Newcastle on Saturday but according to El Desmarque, Real Betis want to bring him to Spain.

La Liga clubs can still sign players until the end of August, while the window for Premier League clubs to purchase players closed last week.

Real Betis sports vice-president Lorenzo Serra Ferrer has declared an interest in Moura. “Lucas is a great footballer and if we have possibilities we would like to have them,” he said.

“But we have to be realistic and know what we can do. We try to distribute the economic potential well in order to try to reinforce and improve the squad. We have replaced players that last year performed very well and we think we have improved.”
