Tottenham are making progress with their talks to sign Richarlison from Everton.
The Brazil forward looks increasingly likely to leave Goodison Park this summer and Spurs are currently leading that race.
Richarlison helped keep Everton in the Premier League, but could be heading for the exit
The north London club can offer him Champions League football and the chance to work under a seasoned manager in Antonio Conte.
Bill Kenwright and Daniel Levy, the chairmen of Everton and Tottenham respectively, were seen having dinner together, with perhaps transfer talk the hot topic of conversation.
Reports earlier this week suggested that Spurs wanted a double raid of the Toffees to sign Richarlison and Anthony Gordon.
Everton are believed to not be willing to let Gordon go, but Harry Winks could be heading in the opposite direction.
Giving an update, journalist Fabrizio Romano said: "Tottenham are progressing in talks with Everton for Richarlison. Negotiations are already well advanced on personal terms, while discussions between clubs will continue this week.
"Winks has also been part of the talks - structure of the deal not agreed yet."
Winks is wanted by Everton as part of the Richarlison transfer
Everton are believed to want around £50million for Richarlison, who is heading into the final year of his contract.
It may not be the only addition heading to Tottenham shortly, with set piece coach Gianni Vio set to join Conte's staff.
The 69-year-old former banker has previously worked for a number of teams including Italy at Euro 2020, Catania, AC Milan, Leeds, SPAL and Brentford.
He claims to have mastered 4,830 different set-piece routines.
