MANCHESTER UNITED are in contention to sign Everton star Richarlison.
That’s according to bookmakers Betfair, who’ve priced Ralf Rangnick’s side at 5/1 to clinch his signature during the summer transfer window.
However, there’s plenty of competition for the Brazil international.
European heavyweights Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona and Real Madrid feature prominently in Betfair’s ‘Next Club’ market.
And the Red Devils could also face stiff competition from Premier League trio Tottenham, Newcastle and Arsenal.
Richarlison has scored 47 goals and provided 12 assists for Everton since his £35million switch from Watford in 2018.
He’s also become a regular at international level for Brail, scoring 10 times and helping to win Gold at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games.
The 24-year-old is contracted until June 2024, and recently insisted that he would like to play Champions League football with the Merseysiders.
But that’s unlikely to happen in the near future with Frank Lampard’s side in 17th position and embroiled in a relegation battle.

The Daily Mail claim Everton face the prospect of having to sell their most prized assets, including Dominic Calvet-Lewin due to financial uncertainty.
And CaughtOffside believe Manchester United (5/1) have already landed the first blow.
The report claims United are preparing for Cristiano Ronaldo to leave in the summer, and the club’s head of transfers, Matt Judge, has spoken with Richarlison’s representatives.
It’s estimated that Everton will demand offers in the region of £60m-£70million to green-light a sale.
Elsewhere Paris Saint-Germain are favourites at 11/4 with superstar Kylian Mbappe expected to leave for the Bernabeu this year.
Barcelona are next at 4s with Tottenham and Real Madrid available at 8/1 and 10/1 respectively. Newcastle and Arsenal are the outsiders at 14/1 and 20/1.
