Bit more from an actual article:

https://www.football.london/tottenh...ws/ceballos-lo-celso-sessegnon-state-16550578

Then there is Real Madrid's Dani Ceballos. football.london understands there is serious interest from Spurs in the 22-year-old midfielder, who is also thought to be keen on a move to Spurs.

However, the complications in the deal arise from a belief in his homeland that the player only wants a loan move away for a year before seeing what his future holds in Madrid.

Tottenham are unlikely to sanction any loan move for him unless it contains an option for them to make the deal permanent next summer as Pochettino would not want to block other Spurs players' progress for a passer-by in the team who isn't in it for the long haul.

There is another theory in the midfield merry-go-round in that Betis are also keen on bringing Ceballos back to the club where he made his first strides as a professional player before leaving for Madrid.

With Tottenham looking at both their player Lo Celso and their reported target Ceballos it could provide for some interesting dialogue between the three club's hierarchies in the coming weeks.


The bit that isn't mentioned in nere is the rumour that Ceballos doesn't want his outgoing agents to get a big payoff from a move at the moment, and would rather wait for his new ones to get the benefit from the deal. No idea if there's any truth in it though.

OPTION 1: If you want to sound like the most exotic place you've ever been is Swindon say: KEB-A-LOS.

OPTION 2: If you want to get it right but not sound like a complete knob say SEB-A-YOS

OPTION 3: If you love proving to strangers how much of a pretentious bellend you are say THEB-A-YOS.

Having never been to England myself, you are correct, Swindon seems very exotic to this guy from outside Philadelphia
You should try one of their famous "Swinny Cheesesteaks". They're just like in Philly, except the key ingredients are brown sauce and sadness.

It's like when I hear an English commentator say SUAR-ITH for Luis Suarez - it might be right (I don't know if it is or isn't) but he sounds like an absolute wankhamper saying it.
