A lot was said when Everton splashed £40 million to acquire the services of Richarlison from Premier League rivals Watford, with many questioning why the Toffees paid such a big amount of money for a player who scored only 5 goals in 38 Premier League matches.

Richarlison has made his critics swallow their words by proving that he is worth every penny that Everton paid to sign him from Watford. The youngster is enjoying the best form of his career since being converted into a central striker by Marcos Silva.

He has scored 10 goals and set up 1 goal in 22 EPL appearances, a ratio of 1 goal or assist after every two matches, doubling up the tally of the number of goals he scored the whole of last season. He is the highest scoring Brazilian in the English Premier League this season.

His eye-catching performances for Everton earned him a call-up to the Brazil senior team, where he has managed to score 3 goals in 6 international appearances. His match-winning performances for Brazil drew praise from Tite.

At 21 years, Richarlison could develop into a lethal striker, who could lead Brazil to 2022 World Cup glory.
