Tottenham Hotspur are still pushing on Alejo Véliz’s situation, but according to Argentine outlet Cádena 3, it now comes down to a simple question: are Spurs willing to pay in order to solve this problem?
This fresh reporting says Tottenham are seriously considering paying a sizeable compensation fee. The aim would be to end the striker’s loan at Rosario Central before June, so they could sell the striker to Brazilian side Bahia, a CFG club.
Inside the club, the case is seen as one they want resolved, even if it costs more than planned.
Rosario Central, however, continue to stand their ground. Club officials rely on the strength of the contract and show no urgency to soften their stance. Véliz remains in Rosario, trains normally with the squad and even featured in a recent friendly.
The player’s position also helps Rosario Central. As previously covered, Véliz wants to stay until mid-year and focus on his football there. More recent reports have stated his position is wobbling and he may well be tempted, which changes the scenario.
Player source suggests Tottenham tired of dealing with issue
One detail keeps the door open. Cádena 3 says the Argentine transfer window deadline has moved from 20 January to 27 January. That extension gives Tottenham extra time to decide whether they will meet Central’s demands and force an early exit.
For now, the balance stays the same. Rosario Central resist, the player stays committed, and Tottenham weigh the cost. With a few extra days on the clock, the next step depends on how far Spurs are prepared to go to close this chapter.
Cádena 3 state: ‘Sources close to the player describe the scenario bluntly: for Spurs , Véliz is “a problem,” and they would be willing to pay a hefty sum to “fix the broken-down car.”‘
This one got complicated very quickly and Tottenham will wanted it sorted out one way or another within days.
