Tottenham are attempting to hijack Everton's £5m bid for Sheffield United defender Kyle Naughton.
Everton hoped Naughton, 21, would undergo a medical and sign over the weekend but it is understood Spurs are now serious rivals for his signature.
Aston Villa are also monitoring the situation, with boss Martin O'Neill an admirer of the England Under-21 star.
Everton remain hopeful, while BBC Sport understands Spurs are set to hold talks with Blades' defender Kyle Walker.
The highly rated Naughton was outstanding in Sheffield United's run to the Championship play-off final last season, where the Blades lost to Burnley.
The full-back has been at Bramall Lane since the age of eight, coming through the same youth system as Everton defender Phil Jagielka.
Which of the 2 Kyle's will it be?
