It is not easy for anyone to leave a club that was Richarlison’s home for four long years. Goodison Park was his place where he gave himself even more to show in a competition like the Premier League at Everton. However, the ‘Cockatoo’ knew that in the Liverpool blue team it was not going to be easy to win the league title, nor fight in the Champions League or in European competitions.
The transfer market hit the doors hard in the Premier League, and changes of direction occurred. One of them was Richarlison’s departure from Everton and his arrival at another English team such as Tottenham Hotspurs. Now in London, the Brazilian is adapting in the best way, already scoring goals in the Champions League.
With Everton, he scratched relegation last season, one in which he lost a lot of prominence due to recurring injuries, like his British teammate, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who went through disabilities in the same way, they were able to get out of that uncomfortable position on the Premier League final. Summer arrived and a new opportunity for Richarlison in a more competitive club in the same competition.
Sixty million euros was paid by Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspurs for Richarlison, who quickly settled in the London club. Regarding his departure from Liverpool, he maintained in an interview with FourFourTwo, “it is always a difficult decision when you have such strong connections with your club, and that was definitely my case. I was happy at Everton and I am grateful for everything I learned there. It’s a big club with a lot of history.”
Similarly, he did not hesitate to say what is scarce in the blue team, “however, perhaps, they are suffering from a lack of ambition today. You know, that desire to win games and trophies. I spent four years there and could see that there was still a long way to go to achieve great things.” In turn, he talked about what was the last season in which he lost prominence, but it was very intense.
“To be honest, it was very stressful. We had a lot of injuries and the team was not big enough to deal with it. Personally, I also had some problems, “said Richarlison. He closed by stating, “As soon as the previous Premier League campaign ended, I played the Copa América, then the Olympics, and then the Premier began again. I had no rest and suffered some injuries during the season.” Finally, he was not unaware that he lives a great present at Tottenham and in London.
