Rivaldo has missed the point about Richarlison with his blunt Everton transfer claim

Of all the reasons why Richarlison could quit Everton this summer, a quest to force himself in the Brazil side is not one of them. Betfair ambassador Rivaldo has been speaking about his compatriot’s situation at Goodison Park and came out with the following: “This could be a big summer for Richarlison and his compatriot Edu, who is the technical director at Arsenal, could be crucial in a potential move to the Gunners.

“He looks set to leave Everton, with several big clubs interested, and Arsenal looks a good option for the forward. The Gunners have Edu as their director and, after working with Tite until 2019, the ex-Arsenal midfielder knows Richarlison very well from the Brazilian national team.

“Joining a club that fights near the top of the Premier League could be important for Richarlison, after a tough season with Everton, in which he was crucial to saving the club from relegation. If he gets a big move, he will have a better chance of becoming a first choice forward for Brazil at the World Cup in Qatar.”
