Tottenham fans will have their fingers crossed that Fabio Paratici can work his magic on the transfer front over the next week or so with the team's pre-season tour of South Korea edging ever closer. Set to depart on Saturday, July 9, the dream scenario is that the club will have done the vast majority of the transfer business by then and that their new signings are on the plane with their new teammates.
Moving early to sign Fraser Forster, Ivan Perisic and Yves Bissouma, Spurs are now interested in a deal for Everton's Richarlison with a Goodison Park exit looking likely. The Brazilian isn't the only Everton player the Lilywhites are eyeing up, however, as football.london understands that they are looking at the potential of bringing highly-rated Anthony Gordon to N17 as well.
The winger had a standout season on Merseyside despite their struggles at the wrong end of the Premier League table, catching the eye a number of times, including in Everton's 5-0 defeat against Tottenham at the start of March with his workrate and never-say-die attitude. While for some it may look like a straightforward move as Gordon would have the opportunity to play Champions League football and compete at the top of the Premier League, there are various factors that could really complicate matters for Tottenham.
