Ancelotti calls Richarlison to reinforce Madrid

New name in the future potential of Real Madrid: Richarlison. When all eyes are on Kylian Mbappé, Carlo Ancelotti has called the Brazilian forward to convey his interest in a possible signing for the white team, according to reports Goal. The Italian coach would like to meet again with one of the stars of his Everton and this is what he has made known to the striker, who is currently concentrating on winning the Copa América with Brazil.

The aforementioned medium adds, yes, that the possibility is in its initial stage, since the call has not been more than an informative conversation. Of course, they emphasize that it could evolve and become an offer in the coming weeks. Mbappé is the great white desire, but Richarlison, 24, already knows that he has the blessing of his former coach if the incorporation gained integers as the dates advance.

The one from Nova Venécia is not a typical center forwardRather, he performs better with a true nine on the side, a role played by Calvert-Lewin at Everton. Player who, curiously, has also been related to Madrid after knowing the return of Carletto to the Paseo de la Castellana. Richarlison arrived in Liverpool in 2018 from Watford and has been growing ever since. In fact, its market value has passed, according to Transfermarkt, from 25 to 55 million in its stage toffee.

Key to Ancelotti

In their 119 games with the team, our protagonist has scored 42 goalsMost of them with Ancelotti in the band, since he arrived at Goodison Park midway through the 2019-20 season, Richarlison's second in the city of the Beatles. There, mainly at the beginning of last year, he formed a fantastic partnership with another old acquaintance of the white parish, James Rodríguez. The trident that they formed with Calvert-Lewin made Everton one of the revelation teams in the Premier, but they lost their effervescence as the campaign progressed.

The transfer price has not been discussed, always according to the information you share Goal, but it is clear that it would not be economic, since Everton does not go through a time of economic tightness and the Brazilian international's contract does not expire until June 2024. In addition, It would be necessary to deal with the fit of a footballer who would have to compete with Hazard, Bale, Vinicius, Rodrygo or Lucas Vázquez for the timing, since it seems chimerical that he came to take Benzema's place as a spearhead.
