Real Madrid make contact with Everton ace Richarlison’s representatives
Real Madrid have reportedly initiated contact with the representatives of Everton star Richarlison over a potential summer move.
According to Spanish media outlet Sport (10:18, 22/03), they have sounded out the people in the Brazilian’s entourage while Manchester United are also keeping an eye on how things transpire.
Carlo Ancelotti shares a good relationship with him, during his days at Goodison Park, and is keen on a reunion at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Hard to turn down
Much like Ancelotti, even Richarlison might find it hard to say no to Los Blancos.
They’re one of the biggest teams in the world right now and their Champions League record is unparalleled.
Despite the exit of Cristiano Ronaldo a few years ago, they’ve still managed to challenge for domestic and European honours with plenty of world class players.
If Richarlison is feeling that his career is stagnating on Merseyside then he’ll certainly have the chance of taking it to the next level in the Spanish capital.
However, any transfer involving Real and Everton is unlikely to come cheap and the latter will ensure they’re heavily compensated for the sale of their assets.
It remains to be seen if Real take this forward after making initial contact or it was merely to test the waters.
