Everton Interested in Re-Signing Richarlison in Summer Transfer Window
According to Sky Sports News, Everton are exploring a potential deal to bring forward Richarlison back to the club from Tottenham in the upcoming summer transfer window. The Brazilian forward has strong emotional ties with Everton, having spent four years at Goodison Park, scoring 53 goals in 152 games.
Manager David Moyes is a long-term admirer of Richarlison and has made him a priority target in the search for a striker. However, Sky Sports News understands that Tottenham are not aware of Everton’s transfer plans and are not making any plans regarding player sales until they conclude their Europa League campaign.
Richarlison’s move to Tottenham three years ago for £60m has been hampered by injuries, with the forward missing more than 30 matches this season. This could be a cause for concern for Everton, but a loan deal with an obligation to buy, if he plays an agreed number of games, could be an option. As Sky Sports News reports, Richarlison is one of a number of striker options under consideration for Moyes.
The potential return of Richarlison to Everton comes at a time when the club is facing a summer of flux. The Toffees have 15 players out of contract at the end of next month, including loanees. One of those is striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who has also had a host of injury problems. Moyes has a host of big decisions to make, and the club’s transfer plans will likely be influenced by their financial situation and the players they can afford to sign.
In addition to Richarlison, Everton are also interested in signing other players to strengthen their squad. Sky Sports News reported on Wednesday that Leeds are interested in Everton striker Beto, while Everton have an interest in Leicester left-back Victor Kristiansen. Leicester are prepared to listen to offers for a host of players following their relegation to the Championship, but are adamant there will not be a fire sale of talent and no one will be allowed to leave on the cheap.
As the summer transfer window approaches, Moyes will be keen to strengthen his squad and bring in players who can help the team achieve success. The potential return of Richarlison would be a significant coup for Everton, and Sky Sports News will continue to provide updates on the transfer news as it emerges.
The news of Everton’s interest in Richarlison will come as a boost to fans of the club, who have been eagerly awaiting news of the team’s transfer plans. With Moyes at the helm, Everton are likely to be active in the transfer market, and the potential signing of Richarlison would be a statement of intent from the club. As Sky Sports News reports, the coming weeks and months will be crucial in determining the future of the team and the players who will make up the squad.
