Exempting striker Alli from the £10million portion of his transfer fee flotation, they were previously docked 10 points for financial overspending, although that request looks hopeless.

England Premier Soccer League

Rule claims upset Tottenham Hotspur source calls it ridiculous. Everton claim that Spurs have taken advantage of the team's financial problems to make tough cuts in the transfer market. Everton also say that Tottenham agreed a June 2022 deal for the Brazilian

The striker paid a £60million transfer fee, which is £20million less than their valuation. Everton tried to use Richarlison's transfer fee to explain the financial overspend, but the claim was ruthlessly rejected by the independent commission.

The two clubs held talks last month and the current contract stipulates that Everton must pay Tottenham £10 million if Alli makes seven more appearances. Everton are currently struggling to pay this fee due to financial issues, but the two sides have yet to reach an agreement. Spurs do not want to stop Alli from resuming his career at Everton, but they have made it clear that any renegotiated settlement must be beneficial to both parties, and a new contract now seems even less likely. Alli will also have to improve his fitness under manager Dyche, who has not played since he was injured while on loan at Besiktas last February.

On the other hand, sources suggest that Richarlison's transfer fee will be raised to £60 million if various add-ons to his contract are triggered. Currently, the fixed transfer fee of £52.5 million makes Richarlison the second most expensive signing for Tottenham, behind Ndombele, who was signed from Lyon for £54 million. Tottenham's bid for Richarlison is also significantly higher than that of Chelsea and Arsenal, with Everton paying Watford around £40m to sign Brazil four years ago

Tottenham Hotspur insist Everton's problems are due to their own financial mismanagement. The source also pointed out that Everton had other players who could have been made available for sale in the summer of 2022 to mitigate their losses, such as Anthony Gordon, but they did not do so. Gordon spent another six months at Goodison Park before joining Newcastle for £45 million, a transfer that happened too late to count towards Everton's PSR financial stats for the 2021/22 season.
