  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Richarlison has been linked with a return to former club Everton, with Toffees manager David Moyes keen to bring the Brazilian forward back to Merseyside. The 27-year-old has been plagued by injuries since his move to Tottenham and claim Moyes is a long-term admirer, with Everton set to prioritise the signing of a new striker this summer.

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Calvert-Lewin has been tasked with leading Everton's line in recent years and did put his injury past behind him last term by making 39 appearances in all competitions, but the 28-year-old is out of contract in a month and could leave on a free transfer. He has scored just three Premier League goals this season and Beto has largely been favoured over him in attack.

• DID YOU KNOW?

  Richarlison has scored 12 goals in all competitions last season but has missed over 30 matches this term, with his absence forming part of the massive injury list Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has faced over the the course of the campaign.
