Well he was playing false 9 so maybe them signing strikers is a change of system to replace the hole he's leaving.
Juanmi would be the man to replace him then, a second striker by trade.

So has pretty much the entire Argentina team.He looked poor tonight against Paraguay I have to say

He was essentially a deep lying CM (alongside Paredes) with license to go forward. Definitely the tidiest of the Argentinian players but in that team no one will shine. The fact they still rely heavily on Di Maria and Otamendi says it all really. I hope they get knocked out so, if our interest is true, we can wrap this up quicker than expected.
I think it's hard to judge him in either role, AM/CM, tonight. Like you say, the team is in crisis. Think it starts with their defence, and it impacts their cohesion as a team.He didn’t look super comfortable playing in a deeper lying role, looked much better when he got on the ball and could dribble or playing short one touch passes. Work rate is good and he has a willingness to get stuck in. I won’t judge him playing out of position for an Argentina team still basically in crisis.
Poch has to take some of the blame. Levy doesn't want to do the buying and selling but poch refused to have a dof.
Hopefully colombia let paraguay win 3-0 and qatar hold firm against argentina and we hold firm and get him relatively cheaper.
It's not about that, it's just that it's more difficult to agree a deal whilst he's away at the competition, so the sooner Argentina are out, the quicker we can work to agree a transfer.Would love that
Unfortunately however, i don't think Argentina's (or Lo Celso's) performance in this competition will make the least bit of difference to Betis.
But, i do agree that a disheartened Lo Celso might just push his agent to hassle Betis to get things done more quickly.
(....BTW this is me playing devils advocate. On the outside i'm trying not to get my hopes up.....but on the inside i'm all 'Sign him, sign him, oh god please sign him...SIGN HIM NOW!!!')
You know we agree the transfer with the club and the players agent. We only need the actual player for the medical and contract signingIt's not about that, it's just that it's more difficult to agree a deal whilst he's away at the competition, so the sooner Argentina are out, the quicker we can work to agree a transfer.
If their valuation is the release clause (from anyone) then they are in dreamland.
It's probably not.
They'll most likely ask for an amount that will cover getting a decent replacement in, as well as another player for the squad.
On that note, have any replacements for Lo Celso for Betis been touted?
