Everton striker Richarlison, who is thought to be on Tottenham’s radar, was pictured with Emerson Royal this week.

Multiple reports over the last few weeks have suggested that Spurs have set their sights on Richarlison this summer.

Brazilian publication UOL have claimed that the Brazilian has made up his mind to leave Goodison Park and is open to a move to Spurs. 

David Ornstein remarked on The Athletic UK’s YouTube channel last week that his sources at Everton expect the 25-year-old to be a Tottenham player by the end of the transfer window.

However, Fabrizio Romano stated on his most recent episode of the Here We Go podcast that Richarlison is not a priority for Spurs at the moment, with the North London club focusing on signing a centre-back and a right-back.

According to The Daily Mail, Antonio Conte’s men face competition from Chelsea and Arsenal for the Toffees star.

Amidst the speculation over Richarlison’s future, the forward has been pictured together with Tottenham defender Emerson this week.

The Spurs right-back shared the following image on his Instagram stories:

This could simply be a case of two international teammates holidaying together in Brazil. However, one would think that Richarlison would have asked the 23-year-old about Spurs as his agent would have likely informed him about the club’s interest.
