Everton are seriously interested in re-signing Tottenham Hotspur striker Richarlison this summer, according to reports.

The Toffees are believed to be assessing attacking options ahead of the transfer window reopening, and Richarlison remains firmly on their radar.

The Brazilian is viewed internally as a strong fit for David Moyes’ system and could be available on a low-cost deal, given he has just over 12 months remaining on his Tottenham contract.

Richarlison joined Spurs from Everton in the summer of 2022 and has since scored 30 goals in 129 appearances for the north London club.

Everton Keen on Re-Signing Richarlison

According to TEAMtalk, Everton are closely monitoring developments over Richarlison’s future at Tottenham and are fully aware of his contract situation.

Spurs could face a major decision on the Brazilian in the coming weeks, particularly if they suffer relegation from the Premier League.

The north London side would struggle to retain the 'outstanding' forward should they drop to the Championship, and the scenario would significantly increase Everton’s chances of securing a summer move.

Richarlison is believed to be open to a return to Merseyside, viewing a move back to Everton as a ‘dream’ this summer.

However, any advanced negotiations between the clubs are unlikely to take place before the season concludes, with Tottenham focused on their survival battle.

Richarlison has been Spurs’ top scorer this Premier League campaign, netting nine times and providing four assists in 28 league appearances.

The Brazilian spent four seasons at Everton after joining from Watford in the summer of 2018, scoring 53 goals and providing 15 assists in 152 appearances in all competitions.

Everton Eyeing Nestory Irankunda

Everton appear to be considering attacking reinforcements ahead of the summer, with Watford winger Nestory Irankunda on their radar.

According to reports, the Toffees are one of the sides showing interest in the Australia international, along with Premier League rivals Crystal Palace.

Irankunda only joined Watford from Bayern Munich last summer, making 42 appearances in his first season at Vicarage Road, scoring four goals.

Bayern are believed to have inserted a buy-back clause into the deal, as well as a 50% sell-on fee, which could be key in any potential transfer negotiations.

Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi has confirmed that his side have received a major injury boost ahead of their game against Aston Villa.

Spurs are preparing to face Aston Villa as they battle to remain in the Premier League with just four games remaining.

Tottenham have a host of injury troubles heading into this one, as they have done all campaign, and their situation was worsened when it was confirmed that Xavi Simons has been ruled out for the season.

Dominic Solanke also suffered an injury last time out against Wolves, and he's been ruled out of the game against Villa.

De Zerbi won't be able to believe how unfortunate Tottenham have been when it comes to injuries, but he has received a boost ahead of this clash.

De Zerbi: Big Tottenham Injury Boost

Speaking to the media ahead of Tottenham's crucial clash against Aston Villa in the Premier League, manager De Zerbi confirmed that Pape Matar Sarr will be available.

The Spurs midfielder returned to training on Friday and is in contention to be in the squad against Villa.

"Today was the first day with the group, but he worked very well. He’s available, yes. I have not decided yet the starting XI."

It's a major boost for Tottenham as they prepare to face Unai Emery's side, especially considering the injury troubles they are already having to contend with.

Aston Villa also have some injury issues with Amadou Onana, a confirmed absentee after picking up a problem against Nottingham Forest.

Sarr Could Replace Xavi Simons

De Zerbi now has a decision to make as to whether to play Sarr from the start, given his recent injury troubles.

There's a chance he comes straight in to replace Simons, but it could depend on whether James Maddison is fit enough to play.

Maddison has been involved in the last few Tottenham squads, but he has yet to come off the bench to make his return from a serious knee injury.

If the former Leicester City midfielder is available, it certainly wouldn't be a surprise to see him named in the starting 11, which would be another boost for the North London club.

Tottenham Hotspur will be putting together two plans for the summer transfer window as Roberto De Zerbi and his players continue their quest to keep the club in the Premier League.

With four matches left to play, Tottenham find themselves in the unthinkable position of being two points from safety, with it looking like it's either them or London rivals West Ham United who will be heading down to the Championship.

Spurs will take some confidence from picking up their first league win of 2026 against Wolverhampton Wanderers last weekend, but it was a blow to see West Ham and Nottingham Forest also win on the same matchday.

Forest are five points clear of the drop zone and will surely feel that another win should be enough to guarantee their safety, with the pressure on the two London clubs to pick up wins.

De Zerbi's side travel to Champions League chasing Aston Villa on Sunday, with their injury problems continuing to mount up.

The Italian manager lost Xavi Simons and Dominic Solanke at Molineux, with the former suffering a ruptured ACL that will keep him on the sidelines for months, while the latter's grade two hamstring tear could rule him out for the remainder of the campaign.

Tottenham 'Make Offer' to AC Milan Midfielder Youssouf Fofana

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Tottenham are one of two Premier League clubs to make an offer to the entourage of AC Milan midfielder Youssouf Fofana ahead of the summer transfer window.

Presumably, the France international would be on their shortlist should De Zerbi keep the club in the top flight, rather than if they suffer relegation to the Championship.

Of course, Tottenham have already lined up two more signings dependent on their survival, in Liverpool's Andy Robertson and Bournemouth's Marcos Senesi, who would be on course to join on free transfers with their contracts expiring at the end of the season.

AC Milan are said to be willing to consider suitable offers for the 27-year-old, who they believe has lost no value following his €25m (£21.5m) move from Monaco in 2024.

De Zerbi Would Love Fofana at Tottenham

When Fofana moved to the San Siro from Monaco, he was known as a defensive midfielder who sat in front of the defence.

While the Frenchman has played the same role for AC Milan at times, under Max Allegri he has found himself often used as a right-sided central midfielder in the Italian's preferred 3-5-2 system.

Fofana would likely revert to a deeper role in De Zerbi's 4-2-3-1 system if he did move to the Tottenham Hotspur stadium, but there is no doubt that the 46-year-old will love his traits.

Not only has he been labelled as 'incredible' by teammate Malick Thiaw for the work he goes through without the ball, he has also confirmed that he relishes taking risks when he is on the ball, which is something De Zerbi will admire.

Tottenham need a big rebuild if they do manage to stay up, and signing a player of Fofana's experience and calibre for around £20m is a bit of a no-brainer. No wonder they are already reaching out to his representatives over a deal.

Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi has made a late appointment to his coaching staff heading towards the final stages of the season.

Just after De Zerbi was appointed as manager back in April, Tottenham confirmed that Marcattilio Marcattilii and Marcello Quinto would join the club as part of his coaching staff.

Bruno Saltor, Andreas Georgson, Cameron Campbell and Fabian Otte, who worked under Thomas Frank, all remained at the club, but it appears De Zerbi has now added to his roster.

The new Tottenham boss didn't want to bring in too many staff at the time in order to avoid complicating things when it comes to messages and tactical work.

Tottenham Add to Coaching Staff

Tottenham boss De Zerbi has now added Enrico Venturelli, one of his trusted previous staff members, to his coaching staff ahead of the final weeks of the season.

Venturelli worked with De Zerbi at his three previous clubs, Marseille, Shakhtar Donetsk and Brighton, as one of his first team coaches.

The 45-year-old has plenty of experience, even working with FIFA and UEFA in football, while also working on the Olympic Games.

It's an incredibly important few weeks for Tottenham, and the players will need all the help they can get in the background.

Scary Month Ahead for Tottenham

It is a scary month ahead for Tottenham as we enter the final few weeks of the Premier League season.

It's no surprise that De Zerbi is still bringing in staff to help behind the scenes as they sit two points adrift of safety with four games remaining.

The chances of survival have weakened week after week over the last few months, only securing their first Premier League win of 2026 in their previous match.

It doesn't get much easier for Spurs as they face Aston Villa next time out away from home, looking to climb out of the relegation zone.

Tottenham Hotspur manager Roberto De Zerbi has dropped a big hint on James Maddison's fitness ahead of the trip to Aston Villa on Saturday.

Tottenham are looking to build on their first Premier League win in four months against Wolverhampton Wanderers last weekend, when they face another opponent in the Midlands on Sunday.

Villa are chasing a top-four finish to secure Champions League football for next season, which they could also achieve by winning the Europa League.

Unai Emery's men were beaten 1-0 by Nottingham Forest at the City Ground in the first leg of their semi-final tie on Thursday night, and the Spaniard will want his side to bounce back against Spurs.

Forest are in a rich vein of form right now and moved five points clear of Tottenham and the relegation zone after thrashing Sunderland 5-0 at the Stadium of Light last Friday, to significantly boost their survival chances.

Vitor Pereira's men sit on 39 points with Spurs a further five points back on 34, which begs the question whether the usual magic 40-point mark will actually be enough this season.

Unless Forest and Leeds suffer a huge collapse, it realistically looks as though it is a straight shootout between Tottenham and their London neighbours to see who drops into the Championship.

De Zerbi Drops James Maddison Fitness Hint

Speaking in his pre-match press conference ahead of the clash with Villa on Sunday evening, De Zerbi hinted that Maddison would be unavailable to play minutes again.

The Italian coach has named the 29-year-old on the bench for the club's last two matches against Brighton and Wolves following his return from injury, but he hasn't been deemed fit enough to get onto the pitch.

De Zerbi's comments suggest it could be a similar situation this time around too, stating his importance for the next three matches even though there are four remaining.

Tottenham Need Maddison More Than Ever

It's fair to say that De Zerbi has been hit hard with injury issues since taking the reins from Igor Tudor last month.

The Italian has already lost Cristian Romero, Mohammed Kudus, Xavi Simons and, potentially, Dominic Solanke to season-ending injuries.

De Zerbi would have been looking to the likes of Kudus and Simons to provide some creativity and quality in the final third during the run-in, and the latter was beginning to do that before rupturing his ACL at Molineux.

While the 46-year-old manager can still call upon the likes of Mathys Tel in the coming weeks, he would love to have Maddison available on the pitch to help with goal contributions.

Judging by his latest comments, the Englishman's availability is more likely to come at home to Leeds on May 11.

Interest in Cristian Romero is heating up, as Spanish outlet Sport claims that a new club have "contacted" the Tottenham captain ahead of the summer transfer window.

The 28-year-old is one of several stars who have been linked with an exit in the coming weeks, as Spurs look set for plenty of changes, regardless of their position in the Premier League.

With two points separating Roberto De Zerbi's side from safety, the main goal is survival, but that may not be enough to keep someone like Romero at the club.

Teams are already circling the World Cup winner, and a move could be on the way soon.

According to the report from Sport, Barcelona have "already contacted" Romero's representatives to make them aware of their transfer interest.

The Argentinian centre-back is a new consideration for the hierarchy at the Camp Nou, following months of monitoring a potential deal for Inter Milan star Alessandro Bastoni.

While Bastoni remains the first-choice target for Barcelona, the transfer fee could put them off any deal, with Romero viewed as imminently more accessible to the club.

The Tottenham captain could be available via a reported release clause this summer, though it remains to be seen the exact terms that could be triggered by, as the details remain unclear.

That could leave Spurs helpless to do anything, while they will feel aggrieved that Romero cannot help the club in the rest of their battle against relegation, following the injury that has ruled him out until the end of the campaign.

Does Cristian Romero have a Tottenham release clause?

Cristian Romero's father, Victor Romero, recently revealed that the Tottenham defender does have a release clause inserted in his deal at the club.

It came as something of a surprise, given the star's importance to Spurs at times, which was highlighted by the signing of a new contract last year until 2029.

Romero senior revealed the release clause in mid-April, telling Cadena3: "He has two [three] more years on his contract with Tottenham and a very high release clause.

"The English club isn't going to let him go for free; it's between $50-70m [£37.8m-£53m]. For me, they'll want to recover what they invested."

The £53 million figure could be the best that Tottenham hope for in the situation, which could allow them to reinvest once again.

However, with the potential loss of Romero in the coming months, there is a clear leadership and quality gap that will need to be filled by those at the top.

Tottenham Hotspur decision-makers could make a U-turn on the future of goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky in the summer, according to TEAMtalk.

Tottenham finally picked up their first Premier League win of 2026 against already-relegated Wolverhampton Wanderers last Saturday, and it was a good job they did with Nottingham Forest and West Ham United also winning.

Forest must feel like they are closing in on survival after their 5-0 thrashing of Sunderland at the Stadium of Light has left them on 39 points and five points clear of Spurs in 18th position.

With four games to go though, there may be some anxiety that even 40 might not be enough to guarantee survival if the north Londoners and West Ham maintain their form.

The Irons beat David Moyes' Everton to move onto 36 points, and they face top-six hopefuls Brentford away before hosting title-chasing Arsenal at the London Stadium in the following game.

Roberto De Zerbi's Tottenham face a tough-looking trip to Aston Villa at the weekend, before they host Leeds United in a must-win game at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on May 11.

Inter Milan Win Race to Sign Guglielmo Vicario

According to TEAMtalk, Inter Milan have won the race to sign Tottenham Hotspur's number one Guglielmo Vicario after the north Londoners decided in January that he would be sold this summer.

The Serie A giants have agreed terms with the Italy international over a return to his homeland, but now they need to agree a fee with Spurs too.

Vicario is yet to play a match or De Zerbi as he continues his recovery from surgery on his hernia, performed prior to the last international break in March.

Tottenham are already assessing their goalkeeping options for the 2026-27 campaign, but it will depend on which division they find themselves in next term.

Tottenham Ready to Perform Kinsky U-Turn

The report adds that should Tottenham end up dropping into the Championship, they would likely keep faith with Kinsky between the sticks.

The Ukraine international has responded well after his Champions League nightmare against Atletico Madrid, with De Zerbi impressed with what he has seen from the 23-year-old.

His display against Diego Simeone's men does raise some long-term worries though which are clearly shared by the club, who would pursue a high-profile replacement for Vicario should they preserve their Premier League status.

The report claims that Brighton and Hove Albion's Bart Verbruggen and Manchester City's James Trafford are two leading names on their shortlist, with De Zerbi being Seagulls manager when the former made his move to the south coast.

What is clear is that Tottenham chiefs are preparing for a big summer of change, no matter how their season ends, as they look to improve their fortunes and back De Zerbi with the signings he wants to lead the club back to where they feel they belong.

Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham have all shown interest in Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka in recent weeks, but the Germany international has reportedly 'said yes' to a summer move to AC Milan, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

Man United, Tottenham and Arsenal had been keen to bring the experienced 31-year-old to the Premier League, given he will be a free agent when his contract with the Bundesliga giants expires in two months' time.

United and Arsenal would likely be ahead of Spurs in the race for his signature if he did choose to move to England, given both are set to be able to offer the carrot of Champions League football, while Roberto De Zerbi's men are not even guaranteed to be in the Premier League next term.

The Red Devils in particular are planning a big overhaul of their central midfield this summer, with Casemiro's summer exit already confirmed and Manuel Ugarte likely to join him in leaving with Sir Jim Ratcliffe keen for him to be sold.

United want to bring in at least two new faces in that position, according to GIVEMESPORT sources, to complement Kobbie Mainoo after he signed his new contract at Old Trafford.

Man Utd and Arsenal 'Made Moves' for Goretzka

Gazzetta dello Sport reported at the end of March that United and Arsenal have 'already made moves' for the upcoming free agent ahead of battling for his signature this summer.

The same report claimed that the German could prefer a move to United over Arsenal because he would have more chance of starting at Old Trafford, while he is also willing to take a pay cut on his current £300,000-a-week wages.

However, a new report from Gazzetta claims that the 31-year-old has now 'said yes' to joining AC Milan this summer as he fancies the idea of living in Italy, with the Serie A giants planning big central midfield changes themselves.

gor

Despite receiving offers from Premier League clubs, it's claimed that Milan have really pushed for his signature, with the player wanting his next move done before the World Cup kicks off in June.

It remains to be seen if United and Arsenal push again, while Tottenham's chances will be hugely impacted by whether they survive or not.

Big Summer for Central Midfield Transfers

It promises to be a big summer of transfers in the central midfield market.

Goretzka is just one of many names who could be on the move, with United also targeting Nottingham Forest's Elliot Anderson, Brighton and Hove Albion's Carlos Baleba and Real Madrid's Aurelien Tchouameni, among others.

The Red Devils have also been linked with Sandro Tonali of Newcastle United, who was also linked with a move to Arsenal at the end of the January transfer window.

Both clubs also hold an interest in Ederson of Atalanta, with United said to have held talks as the Brazilian is expected to be on the move at the end of the season.

Elliot Anderson in particular is in high demand, with Manchester City said to be leading the race to sign him from the City Ground ahead of the summer.

Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario has reached a full agreement to leave the club and join Inter Milan this summer, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

The north London club are on the brink of relegation from the Premier League, as they sit 18th in the table, two points adrift of safety, with just four games remaining of the campaign, despite winning their first game under Roberto De Zerbi this past weekend.

But regardless of what division the club are playing in next season, there are expected to be major changes to the squad during the summer window, and the goalkeeper department looks certain to be affected.

Vicario Reaches Full Agreement to Leave Spurs

Vicario, who has been described as 'exceptional', has been the number one goalkeeper at the club since joining back in 2023, but has come under criticism for some of his performances this season.

The Italian now looks set to return to his homeland as a result of Spurs' precarious league position, and it's understood that he has now reached a full agreement with Serie A champions-to-be Inter Milan about joining them this summer.

Yann Sommer will leave the San Siro this summer, with his contract set to expire and no talks held over an extension, and the 29-year-old Tottenham man is set to be his replacement, with Inter having held a long-term interest in his services.

Inter now must reach an agreement with Tottenham for his transfer, but that isn't expected to be too problematic with all parties believing that an exit makes sense, although the price will likely be decided by what division Spurs are playing in next season.

Vicario Replacement Must Be Ready-Made

Vicario has certainly got his flaws, but he has also got plenty of things going in his favour, which makes sense when you consider that top clubs are keeping a close eye on him.

His time in north London has come to a natural end it seems, but if Tottenham are prepared to let him leave then they also need to be ready to replace him immediately, and not gamble with the position.

Antonin Kinsky seems likely to move on too, but the club will need to bring an experience stopper in who can immediately calm the nerves of the defenders around him and provide security between the posts. Until that man is found, Vicario shouldn't be going anywhere.

Tottenham Hotspur manager Roberto De Zerbi has promoted Mason Melia to first-team training as the club's injury crisis worsens, according to Football London correspondent Alasdair Gold.

Tottenham may have picked up their first Premier League win of 2026 last time out against Wolverhampton Wanderers, but their injury situation off the pitch has been dire since the appointment of Roberto De Zerbi.

The Italian lost Cristian Romero for the rest of the season during his first game in charge against Sunderland, with Mohammed Kudus also likely to be out until the 2026-27 campaign.

Spurs remain two points from safety after their win at Molineux as West Ham United were also victorious against Everton on Saturday, but the win came at a big cost as they suffered a double injury blow against Rob Edwards' side.

Firstly, Xavi Simons ruptured his ACL and faces months on the sidelines, while the club fear that Dominic Solanke could be out for the remainder of the season after suffering a grade two hamstring pull in the west Midlands.

The timeline for a return of that injury could be anything between 3-8 weeks, with 25 days until the Premier League campaign draws to a close.

Gold: Tottenham Call-Up Melia to First-Team Training

According to Gold, January signing Mason Melia has been training with Tottenham's first team this week following their injury crisis in attack.

The 18-year-old arrived at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in January in a £1.6m move from St Patrick's Athletic, with the striker considered to be one of the best young talents in Irish football.

The teenager arrived with a back injury and then suffered a chest infection that kept him on the sidelines, with the forward only making his debut for the U21s earlier this month.

Melia has now made four appearances for the U21s, and has been promoted to first-team training this week having also participated earlier this month.

Melia Can Add to Tottenham's Attack

Melia may not turn 19 years of age until September, but he is really experienced given his tender years and has even been described as the 'Irish Harry Kane' by Football Talent Scout Jacek Kulig previously.

The forward has 98 senior appearances to his name, including in the Europa League for St Patrick's Athletic, with 25 goals and eight assists to his name.

With Simons and Solanke joining the injury list, Tottenham fans will be relieved that injury rumours surrounding Randal Kolo Muani have been dismissed, with a potential reliance on the Frenchman, Mathys Tel and Richarlison in the coming weeks as Spurs bid to avoid the drop.

Gold adds that Melia could be battling fellow January addition James Wilson, who joined from Hearts, for a spot on the substitutes' bench in the remaining four Premier League games.
