Sevilla have completed the signing of attacker Bryan Gil on loan from Tottenham Hotspur until the end of the season.
The 21-year-old was spotted outside Seville airport on Monday afternoon ahead of completing his medical with the La Liga club.
Gil joined Spurs from Sevilla in the summer of 2021 for around £21m in a deal which also saw Erik Lamela move in the opposite direction on a permanent basis.
However, the versatile attacker struggled for regular game time under former boss Nuno Espirito Santo and was reduced to just six starts in 15 appearances, before being loaned out to Valencia for the rest of the 2021-22 season shortly after Antonio Conte's appointment.
Gil returned to Spurs over the summer in the hope that he would be reintegrated into Conte's first-team plans, but he has started only three times across all competitions as well as featuring in 10 games as a substitute.
The youngster has now made a temporary switch back to Sevilla having made a total of just two Premier League starts across an 18-month period at Tottenham.
Born in Catalonia, Gil joined Sevilla's academy at the age of 12 in the summer of 2012 and worked his way through the youth ranks before eventually making his professional debut for the club in January 2018.
Gil impressed former boss Pablo Machin and made 11 appearances at the back-end of the 2019-20 campaign, but his game time became limited following the arrival of Julen Lopetegui as manager ahead of the new season.
The four-cap Spain international was sent out on loan to Leganes for the second half of the 2020-21, before impressing during a season-long loan spell with Eibar the following campaign, scoring four goals and providing three assists in 29 La Liga matches.
Gil's form at Eibar ultimately caught the attention of Tottenham, but having failed to reach the heights expected in North London, the attacker is hoping to resurrect his career back with Sevilla under Jorge Sampaoli.
Gil becomes Sevilla's second signing on the penultimate day of the January window along with defensive midfielder Pape Gueye, who has joined the club on loan from Marseille.
Elsewhere at Sevilla, midfielder Thomas Delaney has completed a loan move to Hoffenheim until the end of the season, while left-back Ludwig Augustinsson has seen his loan at Aston Villa cut short and has joined Mallorca on a temporary basis for the rest of the 2022-23 campaign. body check tags ::
