Watford forward Richarlison has opened up about his future at the club amidst heavy interest from the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham.
The 20-year-old made a rather shock move to Watford from Fluminense during the summer despite interest from the likes of Manchester United and Barcelona. Richarlison was tipped to join one of the big boys of Europe but instead, he chose to move to a club where he was a guaranteed first-team starter. And despite moving from Brazil to the Premier League the forward did not disappoint during the first few months.
But as the weeks have gone by the Brazilian’s form has dipped and now multiple reports are claiming that the player is looking to make a switch during the summer transfer window.
Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham are all said to be interested in the player and rumours have it that these Premier League giants will be placing a bid for Richarlison as soon as the current season comes to a close.
Speaking to the London Evening Standard, the forward has claimed that currently he is focused on Watford until the end of the season but has also refused to rule out a move.
Richarlison said: ‘In the future, you never know but I leave all things like that up to my agents.’
‘At the moment my head is completely in Watford.’
‘I am not thinking about anything else and I want to help the team get as far as possible in the league.’
‘That is my objective, that is my focus and nothing else.’
‘I want to play in this country for as long as possible.’
‘It is a great league and has been a great experience for me. I want to improve and playing in England can help me do that.’
