According to Football Insider, Hull City player Jacob Greaves has been linked to both Everton and Tottenham Hotspur; however, the Toffees must remain in the top division in order to sign him, while Spurs’ interest has diminished.
Greaves, the center back for Hull City, has long been one of the best defenders in the Championship, thus rumors of him playing for Everton or Tottenham Hotspur are not new.
The Toffees are said to have been eyeing the 23-year-old as a potential replacement for sought-after star Jarrad Branthwaite. Spurs meanwhile are reported to have been alongside their Premier League rivals in keeping tabs on Greaves.
Now though, fresh claims over the top-flight duo’s interest have emerged from Football Insider.
They report that while Everton are strong admirers of the Hull City academy graduate, they will need to avoid a drop to the second-tier if they are to tempt Greaves to Merseyside in the summer.
On the Spurs links, it is said that while they were keen, their interest has waned since signing Radu Dragusin in the summer. His arrival means a summer move for another centre-back is less needed.
If the Tigers aren’t promoted though, a Premier League move is ‘likely’ for Greaves.
