Tottenham transfer news and rumours: Richarlison AND Clement Lenglet to sign imminently; Djed Spence update

Tottenham are ready to make their first mega transfer move under Antonio Conte.

Talk of Richarlison signing for the capital club is reaching fever pitch after deals for Ivan Perisic, Fraser Forster and Yves Bissouma.

Spurs may not stop there and a deal for fellow Everton star Anthony Gordon is still being discussed.

At the back, Barcelona defender Clement Lenglet is also being talked about as a real possibility along with continued interest in Djed Spence.

Here is your morning update of Tottenham transfer news and rumours...

Richarlison

Tottenham are hoping to wrap up a deal for Everton striker Richarlison TODAY.

Sky Sports and the Mail report on Spurs’ desire to seal a deal worth in the region of £50million in the next 24 hours with 90min discussing their wariness at being gazumped like Arsenal were in their bid for Raphinha.

Completing the transfer now will also keep Everton inside the Profit and Sustainability guidelines before that deadline late on Friday.

The structure of the transfer fee is still being worked on with Everton not keen on Harry Winks while Steven Bergwijn, also offered in the deal, wants a return to Ajax.

Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio reports on the deal to take Lenglet from Barcelona to Tottenham being ‘done’, growing hype of Thursday bringing two massive arrivals for the club.

Marca say the player has given his green-light to the deal and Tottenham would be signing Lenglet on loan.

However, Sky insist the Frenchman is not the only centre-back under Conte’s consideration as he seeks a left-footed option for his three-man defence.

Djed Spence

Multiple outlets are reporting on Atletico Madrid’s desire to sign Emerson Royal.

The deal for Emerson would be on loan and, at this point, reports are conflicting as to whether Conte is open to the idea of letting him leave.

It is suggested by the Mail that the Brazilian will be let go if Spurs seal a deal for Spence, who is still in talks with the club over a £20m switch from Middlesbrough.
