Tottenham Hotspur have ‘offered’ Lucas Moura to Premier League strugglers Everton
Tottenham Hotspur have ‘offered’ Brazil international Lucas Moura to Premier League strugglers Everton amidst the ongoing transfer window, according to the Daily Mail.
The 30-year-old’s current contract with the North London side expires at the end of the season. Spurs have decided against offering the forward an extension on his existing deal. As a result, he will be a free agent in the summer of 2023.
Moura joined Tottenham in the winter window of 2018 from Paris Saint-Germain. The 30-year-old had a decent spell with the Parisians, winning multiple trophies with the Parc des Princes side.
Over the years, the winger has been a key player for us. The Brazil international became an icon for Spurs after his hat trick against Ajax in the Champions League semi-finals in 2019.
However, Moura has seen his influence diminish this season under Antonio Conte. The 30-year-old has missed most of the campaign after suffering a calf injury in August.
Frank Lampard’s team have flattered to deceive this season. Everton are currently in the relegation zone in the league. The Toffees have won just three games in the English top flight in the current campaign.
The Goodison Park side have the likes of Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Neal Maupay, Demarai Gray and Anthony Gordon in the attack. However, they have been unable to find the back of the net consistently.
Everton were in a relegation battle last season as well. However, Richarlison played a key role in their survival. Tottenham signed the Brazilian in the summer of 2022.

Apart from the 25-year-old, Conte also has Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevksi at his disposal. Therefore, Moura will evidently have a tough time getting minutes when he comes back fully fit. However, it remains to be seen whether Lampard will opt to take the 30-year-old from Spurs this month.
