The news of Tottenham’s first signing this summer echoes loudly across football Europe. One of the most talented young football players in Spain, Bryan Gil, will move from Seville to London, while Eric Lamela will go in the opposite direction, with the additional 29.5 million USD.It seemed that the focus of the Spurs was on negotiations with Atalanta about the loan (buy-out advantage included) of goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini, as well as bringing in defender Christian Romero, but that just seemed to be a smokescreen for one of the bigger transfers so far. Of course, that does not mean that the London club will give up on the goalkeeper and the sweeper, currently all major sports media in Europe are writing about the deal between the Spurs and the Andalusians.The life of Bryan – the Spanish BeatleGil is a winger, considered in Spain as a youngster who is just behind Pedri and Ansu Fati in terms of talent. Before the serious injury and surgery, Fati shone for Barcelona and at his debut for the Spanish A national team. If you watched the recently concluded Euro, you had the opportunity to see for yourself Pedri’s football brilliance.Gil, although on loan at Eibar, managed to show what a pearl he is. His numbers (four goals and three assists in 28 games) do not realistically express the quality of the player who will soon be at the new White Hart Lane.Of course, Premier League is a completely different style of football, the most competitive in the world where physical predispositions play a big role, so the winger, only 175 centimeters tall and with thin posture, will probably have to go through a certain period of adaptation before imposing himself properly at Tottenham.##EDITORS_CHOICE##When it comes to Eric Lamela, who will, if there are no surprises, move to Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, the Argentine has never managed to show consistency in his eight years in north London. There have been glimpses of genius from time to time – last season for example, he scored one of the most beautiful goals in the recent history of the Premier League with his trademark rabona move – against no other that fierce rivals Arsenal.The announced signing of Bryan Gil bring joy Tottenham fans, but it will certainly not chase away the fears about the future of Harry Kane. New coach Nuno Espirito Santo said that he sees Kane in north London in the future as well. The British media have even announced that Kane will go on strike if his ambition to leave the club and move to Manchester City is not realized.Daniel Levy, the first man of the club, will certainly not surrender without a fight… Or a huge compensation. And if the sum of over 140 million USD at some point ends up on the Spurs bank account, only then will the club think about life after Harry Kane.
