Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed their interest in Everton pair Richarlison and Anthony Gordon, with The Sun reporting that they have decided to make a £100m bid for the pair.

Spurs are stepping up their effort to bolster Antonio Conte’s squad. It has been apparent for some time that Richarlison is a top target for the club.

However, on Monday, it became apparent that they would also like to sign Gordon. And it seems that Tottenham have wasted little time in confirming their intentions.

According to The Sun, Spurs have bid £100 million for both Gordon and Richarlison. The initial fee is £80 million, while the remaining £20 million is made up of add-ons.

The Sun notes that Everton are open to selling Richarlison – and need to make one big sale. But they have no intention of letting Gordon follow him out of the door. So you would imagine that they may have little interest in cashing in.

It would be a surprise if Everton accepted the bid for the two players. Reports have previously suggested that they want £65 million for the Brazilian.

Meanwhile, it was reported on Monday that they want at least £25 million for Gordon. So the initial fee Tottenham are offering does not cover those amounts.

And surely, Everton will want more than that for the 21-year-old – who was labelled ‘sensational‘ last season.

It is a huge statement of intent from Tottenham. And it will leave the Everton hierarchy with a decision to make at the very least.

But Spurs will surely have to be prepared to offer a lot more should they want to land both men this summer.
