Richarlison has been linked with a move to Everton, with Alan Myers revealing what David Moyes thinks of the Tottenham forward.
The Toffees appear to be in severe need of a new number nine, with Beto currently the sole fit striker at Goodison Park, and the Guinea-Bissau international is exceeding expectations.
Moyes has been unable to rely on Dominic Calvert-Lewin owing to an injury, and the Englishman may leave shortly because his contract expires at the end of the season.
Armando Broja is also likely to return to Chelsea after his loan deal expires, making attacking reinforcements a top necessity for the Blues.
Moyes likes Richarlison amid interest from Everton
Alan Myers believes Richarlison’s return to the Merseyside club would be a fascinating proposition.
The Sky Sports writer says Moyes is a great fan of the Brazilian forward, who has struggled to make an impact since joining Spurs.
Myers isn’t sure if the 27-year-old, who departed the Toffees in 2022, will return next summer.
The journalist commented on X (7 March): “Would certainly be interesting [Richarlison returning].” I believe Moyes likes him as a player. I’m not sure if it happens.
Goodison Park remembers Richarlison fondly
It’s not unexpected that Richarlison is being linked with a return to Goodison Park following his four-year tenure with the Blues.
The 27-year-old became the Merseyside club’s talisman after joining from Watford, so it made sense for a top team like Tottenham to be interested in him.
While the Brazil international was a star at Everton, he has failed to meet expectations at the North London club.
While injuries haven’t helped Richarlison’s cause at Spurs, his overall impact throughout N17 games has been ineffective.
The 27-year-old may be looking to relocate to more familiar surroundings, which might provide the Blues with a chance.
Moyes will definitely be concerned about the former Fluminense striker’s chronic fitness difficulties at Tottenham, but there is no denying his enormous talent.
If Liverpool can sign the centre-forward for a reasonable sum, they should seize the opportunity.
It is unclear whether a move for Richarlison will take place in the coming months.
