Everton are showing an interest in bringing Richarlison back to Merseyside and it is believed he has now given the green light over his next possible club.
The game at the weekend against Tottenham Hotspur saw Everton fire another blank in front of goal for the second consecutive game.
David Moyes was keen to sign two strikers over the summer, but he was forced to settle for the addition of Thierno Barry from Villarreal.
Clearly, more is going to be needed when the January window opens if nothing is to dramatically change up top for Moyes.
Everton News understands that Richarlison is on the radar for Everton, but a move in the winter window is unlikely.
Richarlison’s next move may now already be in his thinking amid what needs to be a strong season ahead of the World Cup.
Richarlison keen on joining Flamengo amid Everton interest
Over the weekend, Richarlison shared an Everton transfer post on social media following his return to Merseyside.
The 28-year-old remains a fan favourite among many Everton supporters, with the Brazilian given an applause when he entered the field.

However, according to reporter Fabricio Lopes, Richarlison has already given the green light to join Flamengo if he returns to South America.
“The one Flamengo really want is Richarlison, the former Fluminense man. The values are still being discussed and are much higher than what Brazilian clubs usually pay,” he said.
“But Richarlison has already given the ‘ok’ to negotiate with Flamengo if he returns to South America.”
As per Everton News’ sources, Richarlison is keen to re-join Everton and play in front of the Hill Dickinson Stadium crowd.
With one year remaining on his contract at the end of the term, Spurs will be left with a decision as to whether they need to cash in on their £60m signing.
Everton could land cut-price deal for Richarlison
As was the case on Sunday, Richarlison is not exactly viewed as Tottenham’s starting striker for every single game.
Even in the absence of Dominic Solanke, the Brazilian is now struggling to nail down the starting spot under Thomas Frank.
Richarlison signed a lot of autographs for Everton fans after the game on Sunday in a clear display of his love for the Blues.
There is no doubt that his time in north London has been a struggle, but he could benefit from the love of the Hill Dickinson crowd.
Alan Brazil thinks Richarlison looks miserable at Spurs, and that has translated into a lack of goals.
With one year left on his deal in the summer, it would be difficult for Spurs to justify a big asking price for the forward who will be 29 years of age.
