Everton are reportedly not fearful that Brazilian attacker Richarlison could leave Goodison Park during this summer's transfer window.
The 24-year-old has scored 42 times and registered nine assists in 119 appearances for the Toffees since arriving from Watford in July 2018.
A recent report claimed that new Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti was keen to bring the South American with him to the Bernabeu in the current market.
However, according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Los Blancos are not interested in Richarlison, and Everton are confident of keeping him at Goodison Park "for at least one more season".
"There's nothing between Real Madrid and Richarlison. Everton and Rafael Benitez are convinced the Brazilian will stay at the club for at least one more season," Romano told his Twitch chat.
Richarlison, who has been a key player for Brazil at this summer's Copa America, scored 13 times and registered three assists in 40 appearances for his Merseyside club during the 2020-21 campaign.
