Two deals, one shock! Tottenham and Everton agree Ndiaye-Richarlison switch
Tottenham and Everton are preparing a stunning transfer domino involving two of their attacking stars.
Details: According to The Athletic, an agreement in principle has been reached for 26-year-old Iliman Ndiaye to leave Everton and join Tottenham. At the same time, 29-year-old Richarlison is set to move in the opposite direction and return to Everton. Crucially, these are being negotiated as two separate transfers rather than a direct swap deal.

Neither move is fully completed yet. Both transfers remain subject to the players reaching agreements over personal terms and successfully passing their medical examinations. The initial report does not disclose the transfer fees involved in either operation.
For Tottenham, the agreement would bring another major attacking option to north London in Senegal international Ndiaye. Everton, meanwhile, would welcome back a player who already knows the club extremely well, with Richarlison having spent four seasons on Merseyside before leaving for Tottenham in 2022.
It is worth noting that Richarlison made 152 appearances for Everton during his first spell at the club and scored 53 goals in all competitions. Ndiaye, meanwhile, is currently valued at €50 million by Transfermarkt.
