A lot of talk regarding Everton's summer transfer window centred around the futures of two players in particular, Richarlison and Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
The pair have been their side's biggest goal threats for some time now, with both finding the back of the net in *that* match against Crystal Palace to cement the Blues' Premier League status. But, the feeling among many pundits was that the pair might be looking for a new challenge heading into the 2022/23 season.
Both will have ambitions of playing big roles in the World Cup for their respective countries, and they will undoubtedly be on the hunt for trophies and success at a club level as well. That's the ambition that comes with players of these talents, and everyone at Everton will have been acutely aware of that for some time.
