Wrapping up the Tottenham transfer news, rumours and gossip in the 2022 summer window.
Tottenham are targeting a package deal for both Everton's Richarlison and Anthony Gordon.
However, Chelsea are considering rivalling Spurs for Richarlison, who they see as a potential replacement for Inter Milan-bound Romelu Lukaku and is one of several options the club are looking at to improve their front line.
Tottenham - as a club - also want to sign young English talent to develop and see left-winger Gordon as a talented player for the future.
Everton are anticipating a bid from Spurs for both players, which could be made this week.
Richarlison has been tracked by Spurs since he was at Watford and can provide competition across the front line, including backup to Harry Kane.
Tottenham and Middlesbrough remain apart in their valuations of Djed Spence after the latest round of negotiations.
Officials from both clubs are understood to have met in London on Thursday but were unable to find an agreement. Spurs remain very interested in Spence and the player wants the move, but the north London club are prepared to move on if no deal can be struck and do have other options, including Lens' Jonathan Clauss and Torino's Wilfried Singo.
Sky Sports News has been told PSV's Cody Gakpo is another player Tottenham have asked after.
Raphinha's Leeds team-mate Jack Harrison has been on Spurs' radar for a while but is understood to have a very high valuation, while Sky in Italy have reported that Spurs director of football, Fabio Paratici, has asked about Roma's Nicolo Zaniolo.
Sky in Italy add that Paratici also met with Sampdoria to discuss the possible loan of Bryan Gil, and with Roma to potentially loan centre-back Joe Rodon to Jose Mourinho's side.
Tottenham and Everton are in talks over the transfer of midfielder Harry Winks.
Spurs want a permanent deal, but Everton would prefer a loan with an obligation to buy.
Winks is aware he is not in Tottenham boss Antonio Conte's plans.
Ajax will make another offer for Tottenham winger Steven Bergwijn but Spurs will not entertain bids under £25m.
The Dutch club, who have wanted Bergwijn since January, are set to step up their interest in the 24-year-old after they agreed to sell striker Sebastien Haller to Borussia Dortmund for £30.2m.
Bergwijn wants first-team football ahead of this winter's World Cup in Qatar and is keen to sign for Ajax.
Tottenham believe the Dutchman still has a big future elsewhere.
Brighton midfielder Yves Bissouma has signed for Tottenham on a four-year deal, subject to being granted a work permit.
Sky Sports News understands Spurs will pay an initial £25m for the Mali international, which will potentially rise to £35m with performance-related add-ons.
The 25-year-old only had one year left on his Brighton contract and becomes Antonio Conte's third summer signing after goalkeeper Fraser Forster and Ivan Perisic joined earlier this month.
