Tottenham Hotspur are continuing talks with Everton over a move for Brazilian forward Richarlison.
Everton maintain they want substantially more than the _50m that has been suggested.
The 25-year-old joined Everton from Watford for an initial _35m with add-ons inserted to take the deal up to _50m. Watford are also due ten percent of any sale over _40m.

The Brazilian scored 11 goals to help keep Everton up in the Premier League last season

The Brazilian is one of the club's most valuable assets and is believed to want to leave this summer in search of pastures new. 
Everton's need to balance the books means they will, according to reports, likely lose one key player before the window shuts on September 1. 
The FFP deadline, in addition to the club's need to bring money in, means that incomings cannot be expected until there are players who have departed the club. 
Everton's financial situation is such that Burnley and Leeds, the Merseyside club's relegation rivals for much of the past season, deemed it necessary to suggest that they might threaten the Toffees with legal action.





Such news is said to have put the two London giants on red alert with both having identified Richarlison as a primary target this summer. 
Chelsea are looking to rebuild their squad under new owners, led by Todd Boehly, as they seek to aid Thomas Tuchel this summer.  
Spurs, who were boosted early in the window by Antonio Conte committing to stay with the club, are looking to bolster their forward line having qualified for the Champions League on the final day of the season.
