Everton star Richarlison is set to make a move to Tottenham this summer, according to recent reports. The Brazilian forward has been heavily linked with a move away from Goodison Park this transfer window, following another impressive campaign.
The 25-year-old scored ten and assisted five in 30 Premier League appearances for the Toffees last season. That means he had a goal involvement every other game, becoming a central figure in their survival under Frank Lampard.
This has led to Richarlison being linked with a move away from the club, with Spurs, Arsenal and Chelsea all reportedly interested. Discussing his future with Ole back in 2021, he said: “I'm always very careful when I talk about it.

"I have great affection for the people of Everton and for the club, who received me so well from the first day I arrived. I don't know what the future holds. If one day I have to go, it must be good for me, but also for the club.”
And it seems as though that time has come. According to journalist Bruno Andrade, Tottenham are set to land the striker this summer ahead of their London rivals, adding yet another key figure to a busy window for Antonio Conte.
The Italian boss has already landed three targets in Fraser Forster, Ivan Perisic and Yves Bissouma, with a combined transfer cost of £25million. However, the reporter adds that Richarlison is set to cost £60million, with no player swaps involved, despite recent rumours.
It would mark a huge victory for Spurs if they manage to close the deal, with yet more activity set to be concluded.
