Tottenham Hotspur are still exploring a part-exchange deal to sign Jacob Ramsey from Aston Villa this summer, according to Sky Sports.
The report claims that despite the arrival of Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall, Spurs still want to add another central midfielder to their squad, with Ange Postecoglou viewing it as a ‘priority’.
Ramsey is thought to be one of a handful of players that the North London side are looking at, with the club said to hold a ‘long-term interest’ in the Englishman.
The report backs up what we have heard from various sources over recent weeks by stating that Spurs are ready to use Giovani Lo Celso as a makeweight in the deal to land Ramsey.
Unai Emery is thought to be a fan of the Argentine midfielder, having worked with him at Paris Saint-Germain and Villarreal.
Sky Sports report that Johan Lange, who joined as Tottenham’s technical director from Villa Park last year, is the man who is driving the Lilwhites’ interest in Ramsey.
However, the publication adds that the Champions League qualifiers are not keen to sell the 23-year-old since they have high hopes for him.

It does appear as if Spurs might have shifted their attention from Conor Gallagher to Ramsey over recent weeks after learning that the deal for the Chelsea star could prove complicated.
I would not rule out Tottenham making another offer for Gallagher once his involvement in Euro 2024 is over.
