Tottenham Hotspur fans can breathe a small sigh of relief amid the latest updates on Iliman Ndiaye’s future after rumours circled this morning about a potential hijack.Some reports have said that Tottenham’s deal for Ndiaye’s could depend on Richarlison agreeing to return to Everton, with the striker yet to decide on his next destination.What added to the concerns of Spurs fans is the news that the Toffees were pursuing a deal for Monaco’s Folarin Balogun, which led to worries that they may have abandoned their pursuit of Richarlison.Subsequently, it emerged this morning that Arsenal were plotting a big offer for Ndiaye as they eyed hijacking their North London rivals’ move for the 26-year-old Senegal international.Photo by Robbie Jay Barratt – AMA/Getty ImagesTottenham are in ‘advanced talks’ over a deal for Iliman NdiayeHowever, The Standard’s Sam Tabuteau has now assuaged the fears of Tottenham fans by confirming that talks are continuing to bring the Senegal international to Hotspur Way.He adds that the two clubs are now in ‘advanced discussions’ over a £60m deal for Ndiaye, while confirming that the Lilywhites are also in the process of finalising the loan exits of Pape Sarr, Mikey Moore and Souza to Juventus, Koln and Porto respectively.Meanwhile, The Guardian’s Ed Aarons also has a relatively positive update, stating that Arsenal remain hopeful of securing their top target, Julián Álvarez.He explains that the Gunners have also identified alternatives in case they run out of time to persuade Álvarez to move to the Emirates.One of those alternatives is the Everton man, but he writes: “Everton’s Iliman Ndiaye was among the players on their (Arsenal’s) shortlist, but Tottenham are in advanced talks over a £60m deal for the Senegal forward.”Spurs need to wrap up the Ndiaye deal swiftly to avoid another Eberechi Eze-like embarrassmentBy the sounds of it, it appears that Tottenham are on course to win the race for Ndiaye, but they cannot rest easy just yet.There is still a small possibility that the deal could be hijacked, as the Gunners did with Eberechi Eze last summer, leaving the Lilywhites embarrassed.As is always the case in the final days of the transfer window, anything can happen, and Spurs fans will not be breathing easy until Ndiaye is seen holding up a Tottenham shirt.READ MORE: Fabrizio Romano reveals Tottenham are looking for 10th signing after Iliman NdiayeThe post Tottenham receive positive Iliman Ndiaye update amid Arsenal hijack rumours appeared first on Spurs Web.
