Tottenham remain the bookies favourite to sign Richarlison despite late interest from rivals Chelsea with bookmakers Betfair. Talks are understood to have advanced with Spurs firmly in pole position to secure the Brazilian's signature.
Antonio Conte expressed his desire to bring him to north London and with news of Thomas Tuchel's side set to secure Leeds United's winger and Richarlison's compatriot Raphinha, things look good for Spurs. Betfair have priced Spurs at 2/9 favourites to secure his services with Chelsea behind them at 10/3.
If the deal goes through, this will the Brazilian's third Premier League having started life in England with Watford back in 2017. The former Fluminese forward spent a year at Vicarage Road where he scored five goals in the Premier League - appearing in every single match for the Hornets - before securing a move to Everton worth up to £50million.

Richarlison, 25, has spent four years at Goodison Park where he has scored 53 goals in 152 appearances in all competitions including 10 goals in 30 league appearances last season which helped Frank Lampard's side avoid relegation. On the international stage, he has been part of the Copa America side that lifted the trophy in 2019 as well as winning the gold medal in the 2020 Olympic Games where he finished as top goal scorer.
Elsewhere, Real Madrid and PSG are tipped as outsiders at 10/1 and 16/1 respectively though the Brazil international may not be keen to move to Ligue 1 with Neymar being told he is no longer wanted at the Parisian club. In terms of other options in the Premier League the bookies have priced Newcastle United, Manchester United, Arsenal and Aston Villa at 25/1 to secure his signature.
