Everton striker Richarlison is eager to leave the Toffees, but prefers a move to Chelsea instead of Arsenal this summer. Richarlison has identified Chelsea as a number of three clubs he has agreed to join.
Richarlison, 25, has been linked to the exit door after impressing for the Toffees in 2021-22, but Frank Lampards men only managed to finish in 16th place. Everton must sell in order to comply with financial fairplay rules.
The Brazilian international had a hand in 16 goals in the 21-22 season and is expected to pay a huge fee of 65 million this summer. Clubs will look to negotiate, for one player, Carlo Ancelotti once said.
According to reports, Richarlison has changed his mind about acquiring a job this summer. Arsenal are interested, as per the Suns'' reports, but the Brazilian prefers Chelsea, PSG, or Real Madrid.

Tottenham have also been loosely linked with the former Chelsea striker, but this appears to be more unlikely as Fabio Paratici concentrates his efforts on a defender at the moment.
Arsenal, Chelsea, or PSG, are desperate to hire a striker, with Eddie Nketiah the only remaining no.9 after the 21-22 season. Richarlison would be a top addition, but they aren''t confident in Champions League football.
Chelsea still has Romelu Lukaku, but he may return to Inter. Richarlison would be a decent replacement for Madrid and PSG. Lukaku might have to wait for Lukaku to leave Stamford Bridge.
