Everton defender Seamus Coleman has spoken highly of Richarlison to the club’s official website.

Richarlison, who joined Everton from Watford in the summer transfer window, featured for the Toffees in their Premier League game against Wolverhampton Wanderers at the weekend.

It was the 21-year-old winger’s competitive debut for the Merseyside outfit, and the youngster gave a good account of himself this past Saturday evening.

The Brazilian winger scored both the goals for Everton, as the Premier League match at the Molineux Stadium ended in a 2-2 draw.

Everton right-back Coleman – who earns £38,000 per week as salary, according to Spotrac.com – has been impressed with Richarlison and has spoken highly of him.

Coleman told Everton’s official website about Richarlison: “I was not surprised by his performance. I do not want to put too much pressure on him but he is a great lad. He does all the stuff you need to do going forward.

“But he digs in, too, and is a proper team player. I am very excited by him. He is a proper Everton player.”

Good signing for Everton

Richarlison started the 2017-18 campaign strongly for Watford, but the youngster faded away as the season progressed.

However, there is no doubt that the Brazilian is a hugely talented and promising young winger who can only get better in the coming years.

Richarlison showed against Wolves what he is capable of, and the Goodison Park faithful can expect more from him.
