Tottenham Hotspur Managing Director of Football, Fabio Paratici, is reportedly personally a fan of Everton forward Richarlison, who is also on the radar of Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal.
The Mirror have reported that Tottenham official Paratici ‘is a big fan of the Brazilian’ forward.
According to The Daily Mail last week, Tottenham have made Everton forward Richarlison ‘a prominent target’ in the summer transfer window.
90min reported this month that Arsenal have also been in contact with Everton over signing Richarlison.
Could Tottenham sign Richarlison from Everton?
In our view, Tottenham Hotspur could be able to sign Richarlison from Premier League rivals Everton in the summer transfer window.
The £35 million Brazil international forward (BBC Sport) will surely want to play for a big and ambitious club who at least challenge for top honours.
Tottenham will play in the UEFA Champions League next season and will also be looking to finish in the Premier League top four again.
Now, Arsenal are a massive club as well, but Mikel Arteta’s side will play in the UEFA Europa League next season.
However, Tottenham chief Paratici himself being a fan of the Brazilian means that Spurs could be more determined than Arsenal to sign the Everton star.
