Loads of Everton fans have been discussing some remarks that Richarlison has made on his future at the Merseyside club.
Speaking in a recent interview with Globo Esporte (via Sport Witness), the 23-year old said:
“Everything has been talked about. He’s already told me he’s counting on me for another season. He asked me to hold on a little. But it all depends. If a good proposal arrives, we sit down and talk. It’s part of football. We are still talking about these details, sorting it out. He’s bringing in new players. And then let’s sit down and talk. But I think I can hold on for another season.”
Indeed, the fact that Richarlison suggests that he would discuss a potential move away may worry some members of the Goodison Park faithful, but on the other hand he also suggests that he could stay for one more season.

The Brazilian international was a key player for the Toffees in the 2019/20 campaign, scoring a relatively impressive 15 goals and making a further four assists in a total of 41 games in all competitions, according to Transfermarkt.

However, several EFC supporters on Twitter have continued to speculate as to whether he will leave in the summer, given also that previous offers were made in the January transfer window by the likes of FC Barcelona and Manchester United, who both would surely have the financial backing to fund a possible deal.
These Blues discussed the latest comments from the striker:
First Ancelotti and now Richarlison, both putting a huge amount of pressure on Brands to get the recruitment this summer right

If that’s the truth I’d sell now, otherwise I sense another Lukaku situation. He doesn’t turn up for half the matches as it is, we need players who believe in the club and want to take us there. He can be replaced, anyone can.

Brave shout Paul but I've got to agree with you mate, he's decent but nowhere near world class.

I just think the amount of flexibility it would give Ancelotti in the transfer market, as bad as it is the squad needs massive surgery
