Richarlison is reportedly ready to return to Everton in the summer transfer window amid his never-ending struggles at Tottenham Hotspur.
According to a report by Football Insider, Richarlison is the subject of interest from Everton. The Toffees are scouring the market for a versatile and productive attacker heading into the summer transfer window and have set their sights on the Tottenham forward. Meanwhile, the Brazilian international is keen on returning to Goodison Park ahead of the 2025/26 season.
Richarlison and his frustrating Tottenham journey
Richarlison has seen his stock plummet since joining Tottenham Hotspur from Everton in a deal worth £60 million in July 2022. The South American attacker arrived at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with a burgeoning reputation after his excellent stint with the Merseyside outfit.
However, the 27-year-old has blown hot and cold in the last two and a half years, struggling to stamp his authority at the North London club. In addition, the player has become a peripheral figure this term, failing to secure regular game time even when he has been fit and available.
The Brazilian international has managed only 545 minutes of game time across 14 appearances in all competitions while chipping in with three goals and one assist. However, the former Everton attacker’s stock in the market remains reasonably high, with the Merseyside club among the prospective suitors vying for his signature heading into the summer transfer window.
Goodison Park return on the horizon?
Everton’s interest in Richarlison is understandable. The Toffees are scouring the market for a versatile attacker heading into the summer transfer window amid uncertainties surrounding Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s long-term future. With the English striker entering the final few months of his Everton contract, he will likely depart as a free agent.
In addition, Everton will unlikely complete a permanent move for Jack Harrison in the summer transfer window. So, the Tottenham attacker has emerged as a viable target for the Merseyside club, with contact between the two clubs on the cards. The Brazilian international has now boosted Everton’s prospects, as he is ready to return to Goodison Park in the summer transfer window.
Recent reports have suggested that Tottenham might take some time before deciding on Richarlison’s future. However, with the 27-year-old ready to return to Everton, a summer reunion is on the cards.
