Everton midfielder Ross Barkley has not demanded to become Tottenham’s highest-paid player, according to Sky sources.
It is understood Tottenham are interested in Barkley but unwilling to meet Everton’s valuation.
Sources close to Barkley have told Sky Sports News that, contrary to some reports, it is “untrue” to suggest he has asked for £150,000-a-week - more than any other Tottenham player.
