Richarlison

Richarlison is close to sealing a move to Tottenham, but now the striker has a hard decision to make - what number does he take from those available to him?

Richarlison wore the No. 11 momentarily for Watford but, interestingly enough, he hasn't since. He has often alternated with the number seven, but Son Heung-Min houses that strip. With the easy decision already made, the Brazilian has the hardest of all left before donning the Lilywhite strip. Gareth Bale donned the nine amid his short-lived return to White Hart Lane on loan but it's yet to have been grabbed since. The 25-year-old is expected to undergo a medical abroad on Thursday after Spurs agreed a £60million fee with Everton for the striker's signature, football.london understand. football.london understand that the transfer could be completed on Thursday and announced soon after.

Tottenham's final game before the season pauses for the winter World Cup in Qatar will be at home to Leeds on November 12, with Spurs returning to Premier League action on Boxing Day at Brentford. The first newly-promoted side Tottenham face is Nottingham Forest at the City Ground on August 27 and that is followed by a midweek evening trip to London rivals West Ham on August 30. Chelsea are in talks with Leeds over a deal for Richarlison's compatriot Raphinha, with the Blues prepared to pay in excess of £50m to get the deal done, and hold interest in Man City's Raheem Sterling and Barcelona's Ousmane Dembele, who is soon to be out of contract. Everton are understood to be under pressure to bring themselves in line with the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability rules before the end of their financial year, which is midnight on Friday.

Chelsea had made a late inquiry about the Brazilian on Wednesday night before deciding against improving Spurs' offer - a total of £60million for the forward. £ ...

Richarlison will now join Ivan Perisic in moving to north London after the Croatian arrived as a free agent, and Conte is keen to continue to expand his squad. Prior to the deal, chairman Daniel Levy attempted to trade players with the likes of Steven Bergwijn and an additional £20m, but the Merseyside club stood firm for a cash-only deal. £5-10m of the fee is dependent on what the player achieves in north London.

Including that game, a 3-2 home defeat to Southampton, Kulusevski has five goals and eight assists, Kane has 12 goals and seven assists, and Son has 15 goals ...

Richarlison is an elegant solution to Spurs’ age-old issue of not having a striker other than Kane in the squad. Fans may have to get used to the fact that players previously considered automatic starters will be on the bench for certain games. From the arrivals of Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur in January, the team pretty much picked itself over the final four months, with very few changes. He wondered why it was seen as such a big deal to have a player of Dele Alli’s quality on the bench. (For the record, the Brazilian had nine goal contributions from February 9 to the end of the season). City scored 99 Premier League goals last season on the way to retaining the title; they’ve signed Erling Haaland this summer.

Tottenham had offered players including Harry Winks and Steven Bergwijn in part-exchange but Everton wanted a cash-only transfer. The first part of the ...

A deal struck for Richarlison before 1 July would help Everton as they seek to comply with the Premier League’s profit and sustainability rules. Tottenham had offered players including Harry Winks and Steven Bergwijn in part-exchange but Everton wanted a cash-only transfer. Lenglet, who started seven La Liga games last season, is keen on the transfer.

The imminent signing of Richarlison as a Tottenham Hotspur player is perhaps the most telling evidence yet that Antonio Conte is being heard very clearly in ...

The vision was the same in the past, the vision is the same in the present, the vision will be the same in future. Conte is being listened to and that's usually when the trophy-laden Italian produces his best work. Things are changing at Spurs and Conte is at the centre of it. That Lenglet would likely be a loan, albeit with an option to buy, also allows Tottenham to look again at Gvardiol and Bastoni's situation in addition in future windows if the door is firmly closed on them in this one. Another key facet of the Richarlison deal is that Tottenham have spent £60million all in on a player who would not normally be considered a guaranteed starter. However, a season spent mainly on the bench in the Catalan capital looks to have changed that stance. Those who have watched him closely say Lenglet has excellent technique with an educated left foot and while he may lack some pace he has plenty of experience under his belt at the highest level. Conte wanted Tottenham to understand the big club mentality he was used to elsewhere during his career, that there was no sense of a set starting XI and instead a strong squad with similar level players battling it out for every position. Therefore it's no surprise that the ages of Tottenham's first four signings of this window, in order of arrival, are 33, 34, 25 and 25. Having the cushion of the £150million cash injection from owners ENIC this time gave Paratici the cushion to line up deals before players had been sold. That was brought into light in the final weeks of the season when Conte had to name four academy youngsters on the bench for Premier League matches despite having only four or five injuries to his first team players. Conte made it clear that if the club wanted to seriously challenge for bigger things then they would need to buy "important players", ready-made performers rather than simply prospects.

Chelsea reportedly attempted a late hijack to try sign Everton forward Richarlison, who now looks set to complete a £60million transfer to Tottenham. The 25- ...

Surely, Lewandowski wouldn’t fall into the same trap if he ended up at the Bridge. “Richarlison is a gamble. Lewandowski is not and I think Chelsea need a ready-made [striker], guaranteed goals.”

Spurs transfer news: Richarlison looks set to be Tottenham's fourth signing of the summer and football.london takes a look at how this might impact Lucas ...

So at the end of this season now, if the club wants to extend another year, they have that option. Spurs are in need of more attacking players, with rotation inevitable next season, due to the busy fixture schedule. As one Brazilian moves to N17, could another find his way out the door?

Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea have targeted Brazilian forwards this summer. All three deals make good sense.

Raphinha performed superbly for Leeds last season, earning a call-up to the Brazil team and scoring his first goals for his country. On top of that, Raphinha is a hard worker off the ball. The positive here is that Jesus is an immediate upgrade on Lacazette. He will start as the No 9 in Arteta’s preferred 4-2-3-1 setup, but he also has experience of playing out wide for City. The 25-year-old should excel in Arsenal’s fluid, vibrant attack. By avoiding relegation, Leeds have been able to command a hefty fee for the Brazilian winger, who was directly involved in 14 of their 42 league goals (33%) last season. Richarlison is an upgrade on the current reserve options – Lucas Moura and Steven Bergwijn – and, with Spurs back in the Champions League, Conte needs a bigger squad to push for silverware. Arsenal were linked with poachers such as Victor Osimhen and Gianluca Scamacca, but the move for Jesus shows that Arteta wanted a striker who can link up well with teammates and create chances for other players.

The Brazilian is joining Antonio Conte's Tottenham Hotspur squad this summer but his arrival will have an impact on the club's player limits.

With Doherty, Davies, Rodon, Gil and Sarr on the non-homegrown player list for the Champions League, as well as the addition of Richarlison, Perisic and Bissouma, Spurs are at a total of 22 in that section and five over the limit of 17. In UEFA competition, clubs also submit a B list for those born on or after the 1st January 2001 and registered at the club for an uninterrupted period of two seasons. Matt Doherty, Ben Davies and Rodon do not qualify as homegrown in European competition for this reason. Sessegnon and Skipp, like Kulusevski, can no longer be named as U21 players because they were born before January 1, 2001. Pierluigi Gollini has returned to Atalanta following his loan spell, but Richarlison, Perisic and Bissouma will take up three spots and the returning Tanguy Ndombele and Giovani Lo Celso are included again for the time being following their respective loan spells. Pape Matar Sarr and Bryan Gil can still be included as U21 players, however.

He also scored 11 goals in 46 matches for Fluminense. The 25-year-old player also netted 14 goals in 34 appearances for the Brazilian national team. After leaving Fluminense in 2017, Richarlison has 48 goals in 173 league matches during his spells at Watford and Everton.

Richarlison's move from Everton to Tottenham Hotspur was confirmed on Friday morning but Jack Wilshere clearly isn't too bothered Arsenal missed out.

Tottenham's summer spending spree has brought in another big name with Brazilian international Richarlison joining from Premier League rivals Everton - how ...

Brazil are blessed with an array of attacking options to chose from ahead of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar but head coach Tite has heavily relied on Richarlison in the last 12 months. The former Inter Milan coach slowly began to implement his industrious style onto the team in the back end of 2021/22 and the signings of Richarlison and Perisic add depth to his forward options. Harry Kane and Son are vital to Conte's operation and the impressive 2022 form of Dejan Kulusevski made the trio unstoppable in the final weeks of last season. Richarlison's selfless work rate endeared him to the Everton faithful and will be a key feature of how Conte looks to ease him into his Spurs side. Despite his goal output dipping in the last two seasons, with seven in 2020/21 and 10 in Premier League action in 2021/22, his wider return improved, with five league assists last season. Tottenham's return to the Champions League has snapped the club into action in the transfer market ahead of the 2022/23 season start.

Richarlison may not make Tottenham's best XI right now but the former Everton ace could be a great signing and do wonders for Harry Kane especially.

In other words, Richarlison will be a squad player. Yet that is exactly what Richarlison will do, initially at least. Kane leapfrogged Roberto Soldado and Emmanuel Adebayor to become Tottenham's lead frontman aged 21. Until now, Spurs have been toothless when Kane has been injured and compelled to keep playing him when he has been tired (which in turn makes him more susceptible to injury). Richarlison's preference is to play as a central striker. That is where he ended his Everton career and where he has played for Brazil in recent games.

He can play anywhere along the front three for Tottenham and will add to an attack that already boasts Son Heung-min, Harry Kane, Dejan Kulusevski, Lucas Moura and currently Steven Bergwijn. "It's very difficult to say goodbye to a place that has become my home; of fans who welcomed me not just as another player, but as if I were one of them, in the stands; and a club that treated me kindly and helped me develop my sense of community and empathy," he said. The winger netted 10 goals and laid five assists in 30 Premier League appearances last season to help keep Everton in the English top flight.
