Takes three shots in first start Lo Celso had three shots (one on target), created two chances, and made three tackles during Saturday's scoreless draw against Real Madrid.

Impact Lo Celso made his first start since joining Villarreal during the last transfer window and was very active in the middle of the park, showing his well-known playmaking skills and also going up the field to finish plays. Given his performance here, it wouldn't be a surprise if the midfielder remains in the starting XI for next Saturday's visit to Granada.

Loaned to Villarreal Lo Celso has joined Villarreal on loan for the rest of the season from Tottenham.

Impact Lo Celso has battled injuries the last couple seasons and never seemed to catch the eye of new manager Antonio Conte, making this move inevitable. He'll hope to revive his career in La Liga where he produced nine goals and four assists with Betis in 32 appearances of the 2018/19 campaign.

Plays off bench in Cup loss Lo Celso (calf) played 11 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's Cup loss against Chelsea.

Impact It's the second-straight bench appearance for Lo Celso, who appears to be healthy again after missing the last month with knee and calf issues. He's likely still working back to fitness, but if he can remain healthy, he figures to find more time in the squad going forward.

JANUARY 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with minor calf issue Lo Celso is dealing with a minor calf injury he picked up in training, according to manager Antonio Conte.

Impact Lo Celso picked the injury up during the warm down after a non-playing performance against West Ham. Lo Celso seemingly could get injured while sleeping, as he continues to struggle with every injury possible. This is labeled a minor set-back, so the hope is that Lo Celso will be back on the bench within two weeks.

Working on fitness Lo Celso continues to work on his fitness following a knee injury, confirmed manager Antonio Conte.

Impact Lo Celso has been back the last two matches for Tottenham, but he clearly hasn't been up to full fitness and ready to play. He may get some minutes over the busy period, but for now, he's not expected to be an option to start until Conte feels comfortable with him.

On bench against Liverpool Lo Celso (knee) is in Spurs' match day squad for Sunday's clash against Liverpool.

Impact Lo Celso hasn't featured since suffering a knee injury just before the November international break, but he's back on the bench Sunday and could see some playing time.

DECEMBER 19, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

In contention Sunday Lo Celso (knee) could be an option against Liverpool on Sunday after returning to training.

Impact If he gets back onto the pitch, Lo Celso would be making his first appearance since a substitute outing versus Everton on Nov, 7 in which he logged 19 minutes off the bench, Even if the midfielder is available, he will likely continue to serve primarily as a substitute option considering he has started just twice for Spurs this season.

DECEMBER 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out Sunday Lo Celso (knee) will remain sidelined ahead of Sunday's clash with Norwich City. Manager Antonio Conte told reporters, " I think Giovani, after the game against Norwich, will start...

Impact It's not the first time Lo Celso has been pegged to resume training with the squad, so fantasy players may want to take the information with a grain of salt. Still, the midfielder does appear to be trending in the right direction but will likely have to settle for a spot on the bench once first reintroduced to the squad.

Could train by end of week Lo Celso (undisclosed) could train by the end of the week and be an option for Sunday's match against Norwich, according to manager Antonio Conte. "I think, maybe after the Brentfo...

Impact It looks like Lo Celso should be an option within the next week, though he probably won't be ready to start until the trip to Brighton. He's received two starts this season, but he has a chance to win Conte over and secure more of a role if all goes well for him.

DECEMBER 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Will remain out midweek Lo Celso (undisclosed) will remain out for Thursday's UECL match, according to manager Antonio Conte.

Impact Lo Celso hasn't recovered from an issue picked up with the national team and he'll miss his second-straight contest Thursday. It's not believed to be serious, but he'll remain doubtful for Sunday's trip to Burnley.

NOVEMBER 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Doubt for Leeds Lo Celso picked up an issue with the national team and is a late test for Sunday's match against Leeds, according to manager Antonio Conte.

Impact Lo Celso is always dealing with some kind of issue and this is another one picked up with Argentina. He has two starts this season, but in his lone league match under Conte, he came off the bench and played 19 minutes.

Late test for Sunday Lo Celso is returning late from international duty and is a late test for Sunday's trip to Newcastle, according to manager Nuno Espirito Santo. "They are flying now. They are joini...

Impact It's hard to see Lo Celso starting Sunday given that he started all three matches for Argentina over the break. Either way, he's played 14 minutes the last two league matches, so more than anyone, he could completely miss out after a busy break.

Impact Lo Celso was Spurs' only footballer who had multiple shots and chances created. Though new team manager Nuno Espirito Santo started him once across their first five Premier League games together, the Argentinian has some time to replace favored midfielder Oliver Skipp.
