Super Eagles striker, Emmanuel Dennis has reportedly been linked with a move to Everton to replace Richarlison if he leaves the club before the end of the transfer window.
The Nigerian forward is currently valued at about £20million by his club Watford, who were relegated from the Premier League last season.
Dennis impressed at Vicarage Road after joining from Club Brugge for £3.5million last July, when he signed a five-year contract.
The 24-year-old scored 10 goals and provided six assists in 33 league games last season.
The Nigerian striker will replace Richarlison, who is a serious target for Tottenham this summer after playing a key role in Everton’s successful fight for survival, scoring 10 times.
Asked about his future last month, Richarlison said: ‘I’ve already made it clear to the board.
‘I’ve already talked to (manager Frank) Lampard too, with my agents and they know what I want. Let’s wait for June.
‘Now I can’t talk, because when we talk about leaving a club I’m kind of like this, because of the history I have at Everton, the affection that the fans have for me.
‘When we talk about leaving I’m a little speechless.’
