Speaking on a video posted to Tottenham Hotspur’s Twitter page, Fabio Paratici has been discussing some of Spurs’ new signings and particularly Richarlison.

The Brazilian forward scored his first goals for the north London club on Wednesday evening, and Paratici has been full of praise for the former Everton man.

Indeed, the Italian says that everyone at Spurs has been so convinced by Richarlison so far – not only by his ability but also by his character, stating that he’s a fighter who brings great energy to the squad.

What’s been said?

Paratici was full of praise for the South American attacker.

“We are so convinced by him so far. Because this kind of style of football I think perfect for us. Not just technically speaking, but about character. He’s a fighter he has big energy, he can play in three positions in the forward line. He has great experience in the Premier League and in the national team in Brazil,” Paratici said.

Convincing

While Richarlison hasn’t quite hit the ground running in the same way a player like Erling Haaland has at Manchester City, he’s still been very convincing at Spurs.

The striker, quite obviously, already has so much passion for this football club – just look at how he’s been celebrating every goal, and opening his personal account on Wednesday may see the floodgates open.

As Paratici says, Richarlison ticks a number of boxes in terms of his versatility and fighting nature, and he already looks every bit an Antonio Conte player.

Richarlison may not be the signing of the summer, but he’s a very handy striker who has already done plenty to impress in north London.
