Tottenham and Everton negotiate deal for Iliman Ndiaye and Richarlison
Summary

Tottenham and Everton are currently engaged in advanced negotiations regarding a potential player swap involving Iliman Ndiaye and Richarlison. Terms have been reached in principle for the transfer of Richarlison back to Everton after the striker informed Tottenham head coach Roberto de Zerbi of his desire to leave the club. Simultaneously, Everton has expressed a willingness to part with the 26-year-old Ndiaye. Despite the advanced stage of these discussions, the move to north London remains subject to change as Manchester City has also shown interest in the player. The situation follows Ndiaye’s rejection of several contract extension offers from his current side and his previous discussions with the Saudi club Al-Hilal earlier this summer.
