Chelsea may be the most appealing option for Richarlison than Arsenal and Tottenham

Is the Brazilian punching his ticket to west London this summer? On the face of it, Chelsea are the side that Richarlison is most likely to contend for trophies with. The Blues have been the most successful English club of the last decade and won the Champions League in 2021. The recent success of Thomas Tuchel's side perhaps has them better placed in their pursuit of the Brazilian striker than both Arsenal and Tottenham. Spurs can offer Champions League football but haven't won a trophy since 2008. But they are undergoing an impressive transformation with Antonio Conte at the helm. The Italian manager has already pulled off astute signings in the likes of Dejan Kulusevski and Yves Bissouma. But it may take some time before his Spurs side are vying for top honors. Meanwhile, the Gunners had an admirable last season under Mikel Arteta which had looked likely to end with his side qualifying for the Champions League. With just three games remaining, Arteta's men were in pole position to finish fourth ahead of Spurs but capitulated, losing two on the bounce. With the club not playing in Europe's elite club competition, Richarlison might choose to overlook their overtures.
