Richarlison set to join Tottenham Hotspur
Richarlison is set to undergo a medical in the coming days in Brazil and complete the move; Everton under pressure to meet Premier League Profit and Sustainability rules; Spurs are also in advanced talks to sign Middlesbrough’s Djed Spence for £15m
Tottenham offered £40m in writing at 4pm on Wednesday and Everton chairman Bill Kenwright initially went away, believing the offer was insufficient.
Spurs will pay an initial £50m with a further £10m in add-ons.
Everton were not happy with the overall £60m package but had to accept that fee for the June 30 deadline to ensure Frank Lampard has wriggle room in the transfer market.
The agreement was reached very late on Wednesday night with the player now set to undergo a medical in the coming days in Brazil ahead of completing the move.
Tottenham are in advanced talks with Middlesbrough to sign Djed Spence. According to reports, agreement is getting closer and could be reached by the weekend.
Richarlison will become Spurs’ fourth summer signing after Fraser Forster, Ivan Perisic and Yves Bissouma. Spurs are also closing in on a loan deal for Clement Lenglet from Barcelona.
