Everton: 'Interesting' £50m exit link at Goodison Park with Kia Joorabchian 'involved'

The future of Everton forward Richarlison is being influenced by super-agent Kia Joorabchian, according to Daily Star journalist Paul Brown.

Speculation is continuing to mount over the 24-year-old as the Toffees’ struggles both on and off the pitch show little sign of slowing down anytime soon.

Everton splashed out £50 million to bring Richarlison to the club from Watford nearly four years ago, and he’s established himself as a key player ever since.

In 145 appearances for the Toffees across all competitions, the Brazil international has registered 49 goals and 13 assists while becoming a fans’ favourite due to his impressive work rate.

And his impressive performances at Goodison Park appear to have caught the eye of several heavyweight clubs from across the continent.

According to GOAL, Manchester United are eager to snap up Richarlison as they look to move to a more pressing-orientated style under their new management next season.

Italian outlet CalcioMercato, meanwhile, have claimed that the South American star is ‘one of the priorities’ for Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain when the market reopens.

And transfer insider Dean Jones have previously informed GiveMeSport that a switch to Arsenal is ‘something that could actually happen in the summer’.

Joorabchian is known to have a close working relationship with Arsenal’s technical director Edu and was influential in the deals that took David Luiz, Willian and Martin Odegaard to the Emirates Stadium.

The Iranian businessman is also believed to be close to Everton owner Farhad Moshiri and was spotted in a director’s box at Goodison Park as the search for Rafa Benitez’s successor got underway.
