According to Times, Everton have made contact with Tottenham Hotspur regarding signing Paulo Gazzaniga on summer transfer deadline day.

It has been reported that the Toffees prefer a loan move for the Argentina international goalkeeper.

However, according to the report, Tottenham want any deal to be permanent.

Good signing for Everton?

Jordan Pickford is the number one goalkeeper at Everton at the moment, and the England international is a very good player between the posts.

However, Pickford has made mistakes from time to time, and there is no doubt that he needs more competition.

Gazzaniga is now essentially the third-choice goalkeeper at Spurs following the signing of Joe Hart on a free transfer earlier this summer.

The Argentine is 28 years of age and is ready to play regular first-team football for a top club in the Premier League.

Sensible stance from Tottenham Hotspur

With Everton reportedly keen on a new goalkeeper today, it is very sensible for Tottenham to demand a permanent transfer.

It would help Spurs get some transfer fee for a player who is not going to get much playing time and would not be missed from a playing perspective.
