Lucas Bargaval was one of the hottest names on the shelf in the transfer window that actually ended last night (Thursday) in the major European leagues. Barcelona was the leading candidate to join him, although they offered about 7 million euros and it was even the German Eintracht Frankfurt that agreed to pay more, about 9 million euros.

In the end, Tottenham's offer fell through, when the player was also convinced to move to London. He will officially join Tottenham only at the end of the season and will stay at least until the summer of 2029.
