Sulking and diving.

He's terrible at diving. He never gets decisions.
 
Regardless of form, If Real and United are interested in this lad, then as far as they're concerned he's a 24 year old current Olympic gold winning Brazilian number 9 with 3.5 years left on his contract. At least 50-60M or PSG will buy him.
 
We overpaid for him
I think this is part of the issue in trying to estimate what he'd be worth if he was sold.

Based on his entire Everton career, and not just the last few months, I think you can say he's improved as a player compared with when he 1st joined. He's also had more extensive international exposure with Brazil.

I think looking at it holistically he's a player where you might get anywhere between 35-55M based on his Everton career alone. I know that's quite a wide range but I think that's reflective of how his Everton career has fluctuated at times. Some teams may view him as a streaky player and therefore at the bottom end of that range. Other teams may view the current predicament of the team as being a major factor in current form.

Where I think this is difficult is weighing it up against what was paid to Watford to buy him. I think he's a better player with a better profile now than in 2018. Still young and best years ahead of him. Yet despite being a better player it might be that any fee for a prospective move might not be that different to what was paid in summer 2018. That doesn't quite feel right but it's probably indicative of overpaying in the 1st place.
 
47 goals and 12 assist in 147 Everton appearances.

Goal contribution (goal or assist) every 167 minutes during his Everton career. That's not bad for a player who's playing for a team that's generally been mid-table and scored on average 48 goals per league season since start of 2018/19 (that average will come down after this season).

Richarlison has been involved in every 3.6 goals Everton have scored in the Premier League since start of 2018/19. Elite forwards like Salah and Kane are involved in every <3 goals their team scores overall. Richarlison isn't that far way from that, despite playing for a team that doesn't score lots.
 

He had James in the side last season and he scored 7 goals.

...and 3 assists so from 33 starts (1 sub) its a goal/assist every 3.3 games. Thats pretty good for a negative defensive minded side where he mostly played wide.

If he had played CF instead of DCL i imagine his goal tally would have increased.

Yeah, the context is important where he scored 13 from mainly wide in his first two seasons and that dropped as we became more negative.

For a 'mid' table side 13 for a hard working wide player is decent...now for a relegation candidate 7 isnt atrocious seeing how little chances he has.
 
If they got to watch Fred be average in the PL for 5 seasons first that wouldn't have happened
Nobody will ever know. However, if they are interested, Richarlison will not be cheap. Just because he's struggling with no supply in a very poor side, dosen't mean he wouldn't turn into a goal machine at a club with better players.

I feel pretty confident in saying he wouldn't. He plays in a fairly dominant Brazil side and is a 1 in 3 scorer there.

The problem though isn't even the scoring rate, he's good enough there, it's that he's meh to poor at basically everything else. If I'm signing players for a club he's probably not even on my list at this point.

Football is silly though so I'd not be stunned if something happened.

I agree context is important. It'll be a case of better, more attacking teams looking at Richarlison and thinking can we get 15 goals and 5 assists from him in a season if he starts 40 games at LW/CF. Is he primed to make that next step as a player? Some teams will think that Richarlison is the right age and profile to make a step forward in his production in the right set up.

Signing Richarlison gives clubs an avenue into the Brazilian market.
I'm not sure about this though. I'm not sure that Richarlison is that big a draw that going to United, PSG or Real would all of a sudden change the profile of that club in Brazil and South America. From what I can see Richarlison hasn't been selected for Brazil for about 9 months now (excluding Olympics), though is in the squad for the latest WC qualifiers. He'll have a profile in Brazil but he's not a star player for them in the way Neymar or Thiago Silva are. I suspect Vinicius Jr, Rodrygo, Martinelli, Anthony are the rising stars of the Brazil national team as well.

There's a real chance he doesn't go to the World Cup

That's always a concern for any Brazil player. They have so many good players, playing across the globe.

If your club form dips then there's always a quality player just outside of the squad looking to replace you.

I suspect Richarlison is on the periphery of the squad currently. The good thing for him is that Brazil don't have lots of players to play in that central striker position. Firmino is out of favour and the likes of Cunha has played that position recently. There's definitely an opening there for Richarlison despite him not playing for Brazil in recent games.

I think he'll struggle to get game time as the left forward in a 4-3-3 or wide left in a 4-2-3-1.
