Chelsea have missed out on the signing of Richarlison despite a late attempt to stop him moving to Tottenham.
The Everton forward had been linked with the Goodison Park exit door this summer as the club fought to balance the books. A £60m agreement has been struck with the north London outfit, who are looking to bolster their ranks ahead of their return to the Champions League.
Chelsea too are seeking new forward options and had their sights on Richarlison, who scored 11 times last term for the Toffees. The Brazilian has proven himself in England and may have served as a replacement for Romelu Lukaku. As a result the Blues made late moves to leapfrog Tottenham on Wednesday night, only to see their efforts knocked back, according to reports.
