Everton are reportedly exploring a possible move for Richarlison, with the Brazilian forward's valuation sitting at around £35-40m. The Toffees are said to be weighing up whether to make an approach, with Tottenham Hotspur only entertaining offers above £35m. Richarlison has been in fine form for Spurs, scoring 11 Premier League goals and supplying four assists in 32 league appearances last season. However, his intense style has brought recurring muscle injuries across recent seasons, making any major investment carry obvious risk.
