With the summer transfer window in full swing, Football Talk will be keeping you up-to-date with all the latest transfer news throughout the summer. Today, Everton finally agree a fee for Steven Pienaar.
Everton have finally agreed a fee to re-sign midfielder Steven Pienaar from Tottenham Hotspur, according to Sky Sports News.
The South African moved to Spurs from the Toffees in January 2011 in a £3m deal. However, the 30-year-old struggled to settle in London and only managed to make 10 appearances during his time at White Hart Lane.
Pienaar was then loaned back to Everton in January 2012 and made an immediate impact, scoring four goals in 14 games. This form persuaded boss David Moyes to try and re-sign the midfielder on a permanent basis but the Merseysiders struggled to agree a fee after holding initial talks with Tottenham at the end of last season.
But Sky Sports News are now reporting that the Blues have finally managed to agree a deal and a move back to Everton should be sealed in the coming days.
