"My understanding is..." - Journalist drops Everton update on potential Richarlison exit deal

Everton only want money for star forward Richarlison this summer, according to Daily Star journalist Paul Brown.

Tottenham are interested in signing the Brazilian, while Everton are thought to be keen on Harry Winks, but Brown says the Merseyside club want to keep the two things separate.

It is believed that he will cost more than £50m, with the 25-year-old being arguably Everton’s most vital player.

Meanwhile, another report from The Telegraph claims that Toffees manager Frank Lampard is targeting Winks as part of his rebuild at Goodison Park.

The midfielder is likely to depart the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this summer after being told that he is free to leave Antonio Conte’s side.
