Former Liverpool star Jamie Carragher has predicted on Twitter how Everton fans will react when they see Richarlison play for Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur next season.
Tottenham are reportedly set to sign Brazil international forward Richarlison from Premier League rivals Everton in the summer transfer window.
Sky Sports have reported that the 25-year-old has completed his medical in Brazil ahead of his move to Tottenham from Everton for £60 million.
Former Liverpool defender Carragher criticised Richarlison during the Merseyside derby between the Reds and Everton last season for going down too easily.
The Sky Sports pundit believes that Everton fans will say the same about the £110,000-a-week (SalarySport) former Watford star next season when he turns out for Tottenham.
Jamie Carragher on Tottenham target and Everton forward Richarlison
Good signing for Spurs?
In our opinion, Everton forward Richarlison would be a good signing for Tottenham Hotspur in the summer transfer window.
Now, of course, £50 million is a lot of money to pay for a player who will have to work hard to get into Antonio Conte’s starting lineup at Tottenham, but let’s not forget that Richarlison is only 25.
So, there is every reason to believe that he can improve and get better in the coming years.
Moreover, the Everton star can play as a centre-forward or out wide and has extensive experience in the Premier League.
Richarlison has scored 48 goals and created 32 big changes in 173 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career.
