Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has reportedly identified Everton forward Richarlison as one of his preferred additions ahead of the 2021-22 campaign.

Ancelotti opted to depart Goodison Park in favour of a return to Real earlier this summer, five years after his first reign at the Bernabeu came to an end.

While the Italian may not be provided with a significant war chest to transform the Real squad, he has still put together a shortlist of targets.

According to Goal, Ancelotti has made contact with his former club regarding the availability of Richarlison.

The Toffees are expected to be against parting ways with one of their key assets, particularly with three years still remaining on his contract.

Nevertheless, a bid in excess of the £50m which they paid for the Brazil international in 2018 may prove too good to turn down if Richarlison expresses a desire to depart the club. body check tags ::
