Journalist Fabrizio Romano has shed light on a fascinating revelation regarding Bryan Gil and Real Sociedad’s clandestine interest in acquiring him last month.
With the close of the January transfer window just days ago, various insights into unsuccessful deals are now emerging. Among the flurry of activities, Tottenham Hotspur emerged as a prominent player, solidifying three transfers and securing talents such as Timo Werner, Radu Dragusin, and Lucas Bergvall.
In the midst of these dealings, the potential departure of Bryan Gil from Hotspur Way garnered significant attention, with strong speculations regarding his transfer ultimately leading to his retention at the club.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Real Sociedad sought Bryan Gil for a loan deal in January, reportedly engaging in ‘secret meetings’ with Tottenham. However, the proposed terms failed to align with the conditions set by Tottenham, preventing the fruition of the deal.
Romano further divulged that Real Sociedad was not the only club vying for the left-winger; Feyenoord and fellow English club Brighton also presented late proposals, aiming to secure his services.
In his sharing on X, Romano expressed, “Real Sociedad asked for Bryan Gil on loan during the January transfer window. He was one of the targets, but despite secret talks with Spurs, the conditions of the deal were not within Real parameters.” He continued, “Bryan turned down Feyenoord and Brighton proposals in the final week.”
Amidst these interactions, the young forward declined offers from both clubs in the final week, choosing to remain in North London. Although Gil is yet to open his goal account for the Lillywhites, he has demonstrated unwavering trust in his abilities, opting to compete for playing time and revitalize his career at Tottenham, even in light of the recent arrival of Timo Werner, who is anticipated to assume a prominent role on the left side of the attack.
