Tottenham are reportedly hoping they can hijack Everton’s transfer deal for Villarreal winger Arnaut Danjuma.
The Dutch international was set to join Everton on loan, but it now appears that Spurs believe they may have been moved to pole position by his signing, according to football.london.
The report states that Tottenham jumped in at the last minute to reach a deal for Danjuma, and the 25-year-old is now said to be on his way to undergo a medical with the north London club.
Danjuma has impressed in his time in La Liga, and also showed some promise in a spell with Bournemouth early in his career, so it will be interesting to see him back in English football.

This is a huge blow for Everton, whose misery on and off the pitch continues, with Danjuma now seemingly out of reach.
This comes on the heels of the sacking of Frank Lampard as Toffees boss, with the club sitting 19th in the Premier League table, with relegation looking an increasingly realistic possibility.
