A report from iNews claims that Everton are weighing up a third bid to sign Leeds United winger Willy Gnonto with the Italian keen on a move to Goodison Park this summer – amid new reports that say Tottenham are also interested.
Gnonto, 19, remains a player in demand after refusing to play for Leeds in the Carabao Cup last week, and despite training on Thursday and Friday, he refused to face Birmingham City on Saturday. Luis Sinisterra has joined Gnonto.
He remains keen on leaving despite some rumours suggesting he could perform a u-turn at Leeds. It is unlikely that he will be in the squad for West Brom. Phil Hay says Gnonto is training by himself, a decision made by Daniel Farke.
According to London World journalist Rahman Osman, Gnonto is also a target for Ange Postecoglou and Tottenham. Spurs of course have a bit of cash to spend, after selling Harry Kane. But Everton are planning to go back in for him.
Indeed, the latest report from iNews states that Everton are weighing up a third offer to sign Gnonto in the coming hours. The two previous offers from the Toffees have not gone north of £20m. The third bid, could exceed that fee.

Leeds need to start cashing in on a player or two in order to be able to spend the cash that The 49ers clearly have. Leeds have money, but FFP is preventing us from spending as much as we need to. So, selling Gnonto is now key.
Tyler Adams, Sinisterra and Gnonto could all now leave the club and if so, Leeds will be hoping to bring in money for their services. Leeds, though, recently said he was not for sale. 90Min say we want £30m. Quite the gap, then.
