Brazilian striker Richarlison is linked with several clubs following his stellar performances in the 2021-22 Premier League campaign for his current club, Everton. Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, PSG and Spurs have all been linked with the signing of the versatile striker.
The 25-year-old striker scored 10 goals and offered 5 assists in 28 appearances this season and helped the Toffees escape the relegation. In the shooting alone he scored 6 goals and gave an assist, including the winner against Chelsea at Goodison Park.
The Royal Blues were left without their talismanic striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin for most of the season due to injury problems, but Richarlison rose when the club needed him most and led Frank Lampard’s men’s front line. .
Kylian Mbappé has renewed his contract with PSG and has refused to move to Real Madrid, so Carlo Ancelotti will have to look for reinforcements to attack elsewhere. The Italian coach is looking for a striker at his former club, Everton, and wants to take Richarlison to the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, according to Tutto Mercato Web.
Richarlison is unsure of his future at Everton
The newly crowned 14-time UEFA Champions League winner already has players such as Karim Benzema, Vinicius Junior, Eden Hazard and Rodrygo in attack, but with the departure of Gareth Bale, Richarlison has a chance to join the attack of the Whites.
The former Watford player recently gave an interview about his future, which added more fuel to the fire about his situation. He has been linked with Real Madrid in the past, but a move never materialized, but this time the move to Spain seems more feasible than ever.
If Richarlison decides to leave, he will leave Goodison Park after making 152 appearances, scoring 53 goals and providing 13 assists in the process. (statistics via FBref)
Only time will tell if Carlo Ancelotti takes this reunion seriously or not. This move can benefit all parties involved, as Everton will receive a good transfer for their prolific striker, Real Madrid will have a good option in attack and Richarlison will have the opportunity to play in a club that regularly competes for silver. .
