# Tottenham: Report makes major Richarlison claim

**A report out of Italy has now shared quite an update on [Tottenham Hotspur](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/)‘s pursuit of Everton star Richarlison.**

### The Lowdown: Conte eyes move…

The Brazil international and [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) striker is reliably believed to be on the Spurs agenda this summer as manager Antonio Conte chases an alternative to superstar player Harry Kane.

[Reports](https://twitter.com/RudyGaletti/status/1536625129693884417) have suggested that the Lilywhites could speed up talks for Richarlison with ‘decisive days’ ahead, coming after journalist [David Ornstein](https://twitter.com/David_Ornstein/status/1535639275643064320) claimed ‘some’ at Everton think a transfer is inevitable.

Now, as per[CalciomercatoWeb.it](https://www.calciomercatoweb.it/2022/06/14/calciomercato-juventus-milan-richarlison-tottenham-conte-everton/), a big update has come to light.

### The Latest: Tottenham closing in…

[According to their information](https://www.calciomercatoweb.it/2022/06/14/calciomercato-juventus-milan-richarlison-tottenham-conte-everton/), reporting due to Juventus and Milan’s interest, Richarlison’s arrival at Spurs is ‘ever closer’ and talks are at an ‘advanced’ stage for the 25-year-old, acting as a blow for the Serie A duo.

In perhaps the most surprising claim, the report states that his signing could ‘take place’ for just €40 million (£35m).

### The Verdict: Major claim…

This comes as a major claim out of Spurs, particularly, when it comes to the price tag.

While it is arguably unlikely that the north Londoners will end up securing Richarlison for £35m, we believe the South American’s arrival is worth a potentially higher offer regardless.

Finishing 2021/2022 as Everton’s top goal scorer and best-performing player by average match rating, the striker is a proven top flight threat, having also attempted their most shots at goal per 90 last season [(WhoScored).](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/31/Show/England-Everton)

It’s little wonder Richarlison has been called one of the Goodison Park side’s ‘big name’ players ([Noel Whelan, Football Insider)](https://www.footballinsider247.com/everton-news-catastrophic-richarlison-transfer-update-could-be-crippling-pundit/) and signing him for Conte would undoubtedly strengthen the Italian’s attacking options.
