Richarlison to become new Everton record signing – who were the previous five?

Everton have drastically changed their approach in the transfer market in the last ten years.

While big transfer fees have always existed, Everton were always the club who would rather target an outcast on the cheap than splash out for a star, partly though due to David Moyes’ frugal eye, and mostly because of Bill Kenwright’s shallow pockets.

Now though, the market has changed, and Everton have become drastically richer, thanks to Farhad Moshiri’s 2016 takeover.

With reports today suggesting that Watford winger Richarlison is set for a medical with the Toffees, ahead of a potential club-record breaking £50million switch, we look at the previous five holders of the ‘Everton club-record signing’ title.
