Chelsea interested in signing Richarlison

Chelsea are reportedly interested in the signature of Watford ace Richarlison, according to the Daily Mail.

Richarlison only signed for Watford in the summer but is already being linked with a high-profile move away from the club, with Chelsea one of three Premier League clubs being linked.

The Brazilian starlet got off to a flying start in the Premier League, hitting the back of the net five times in his first 12 appearances.

Despite his goal-scoring form dropping off in recent weeks, Sky Sports are reporting that Chelsea, Everton and Manchester United are all keeping tabs on the young forward.

Richarlison joined Watford for £11.2million from Brazilian side Fluminense in the summer, putting pen to paper on a five-year deal with the club.

Being just one year into his five-year contract, it is believed that any club wishing to sign the 22-year-old will have to offer around £40million to tempt Watford into selling.
