Richarlison will leave Everton and will be a Tottenham player in an operation that will amount to 50 million euros, according to several British media reports. His now former team was due to close the sale this Thursday to help their accounts on the last day of the accounting year.
The Brazilian joined Everton at the time from Watford in 2018. The 25-year-old has scored 53 goals in his 152 appearances for candies, scoring six goals in their last nine crucial games last season, in which the Merseyside club were in danger of remaining in the Premier League.
The Brazilian forward was one of the strongest pieces of the team and was now looking to give his career a qualitative leap ahead of the World Cup in Qatar. In this context, the move to the London team, a member of the Big Six of English clubs, closed on all fronts: a higher-ranking squad and an assured presence in the next Champions League.
Always spicy when it comes to pica between Argentina and Brazil, even if it is well understood football folklore, in recent times it has become a rather picturesque character on this side of the pond. Sure: when he has it in front of him, Cuti Romero gave him a kick he must not have forgotten yet. They will now share a locker room.
