Chelsea chiefs see Everton striker Richarlison as Lukaku replacement

Chelsea have jumped into the battle for Everton striker Richarlison.

Richarlison is ready to leave Everton this summer.

UOL says Chelsea want to start their revolution under new owner Todd Boehly by luring Richarlison to Stamford Bridge. They see the Brazilian as a replacement for Romelu Lukaku.

Tottenham boss Antonio Conte wants Richarlison to join his potent attack, consisting of Golden Boot winner Son Heung-min and Harry Kane, after the Italian guided Spurs to their first Champions League finish in three years.

Richarlison is currently on holiday following the end of the Premier League season but is said to be interested in the projects at both clubs while apparently disregarding talks of a move to Arsenal.
