Everton striker Richarlison has been linked with a move away from the Merseyside club this summer.

According to the latest reports, the Brazilian international has informed the Toffees that he wishes to leave the club this summer and join a better team.

The former Watford striker has been an excellent servant for Everton but it is no surprise that he has ambitions of playing for a bigger team.

A player of his calibre deserves to play European football and Everton simply cannot provide him with that platform just yet.

The Brazilian helped Everton beat relegation this past season and he will be hoping to challenge for trophies now.

The 25-year-old is at the peak of his powers right now and it will be interesting to see where he ends up.

Richarlison can operate as a centre forward as well as a wide forward. Furthermore, his ability to hold up the ball and create chances for his teammates will add a new dimension to the side he joins.

The Everton striker is also a hardworking player who will help out his side defensively.

The 25-year-old has a lot of room for improvement as well and he is likely to get better with coaching and experience.

The Brazilian has scored 11 goals across all competitions for Everton this season and he is likely to improve when he is playing in a better team alongside better teammates.

Everton paid a fee of around £50m for his services a few years ago and they are likely to demand a premium this summer.

The player has been linked with the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea in recent weeks and it remains to be seen where he ends up.
