Arsenal and Chelsea to join the race for Richarlison
Arsenal and Chelsea have joined Tottenham in pursuit of Richarlison. Everton are ready to sell him for the right price, which is between £50 and £70 million.
Arsenal are interested in the Brazilian even though they are reportedly close to signing Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City. It is unclear if Arsenal are going for Richarlison in case the Jesus deal doesn't go through or they want both Brazilians in their team.
Chelsea, on the other hand, are in prime position to snatch this deal. With Lukaku almost certainly leaving, the Blues are left with a need of an attacker. Chelsea can also offer him Champions League football which can bring the Brazilian closer to Stamford Bridge.
There is no doubt that Richarlison has the ability to score double-digit goals in a season. The question around Richarlison is mostly about his high price, as well as can he perform in these top English clubs who will fight for top 4 next season, and in which he will have to fight for a consistent game time, which wasn't the case at Everton.
