Report: National media outlet is bewildered Postecoglou isn’t playing Spurs star more

Ole (as translated by Sport Witness), have expressed concern over Giovani Lo Celso’s lack of game time at Tottenham Hotspur this season, given that Copa America is just around the corner.

The report questions why Lo Celso has been used so sparingly at Tottenham, pointing out that he has only had a total of 590 minutes on the pitch for the club this season.

The outlet mentions the fact that Ange Postecoglou only wants to bring the midfielder on towards the dying moment of matches.

Why isn’t Lo Celso playing more at Tottenham?

They question how the 28-year-old’s situation at his national side and club are so different, stating that while he is ‘essential’ for the Argentina set-up and ‘highly regarded’, he remains largely ignored at Hotspur Way.

The publication wonders whether Lo Celso will get opportunities in the final few games of the season but they make it clear that his place in Lionel Scaloni’s squad is not in danger.

Spurs Web Opinion

If Lo Celso does ask to leave Tottenham this summer, the club will be wise to wait until after Cope America to complete the sale. The midfielder is sure to play a key part for Argentina in the tournament and his market value could rise significantly if he delivers a couple of match-winning displays.
