It won't be long before Richarlison links up with his new Tottenham teammates after completing his big-money move to the club from Everton on Friday morning. Always tipped to depart Goodison Park in the summer due to the Toffees' financial problems, the Brazilian has signed in a deal worth £60million including add-ons.
The player, who has penned a five-year contract at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, is the club's fourth new arrival after the signings of Fraser Forster, Ivan Perisic and Yves Bissouma last month. The new Spurs signings will link up with the rest of the squad next week as the non-international players and internationals return for pre-season training at different stages, before they then head off to South Korea on Saturday, July 9 for their pre-season tour.
Richarlison of course will be familiar with a number of the Tottenham team having played against them but he does already know Emerson Royal from international duty with Brazil. The Spurs right-back is certainly keen to join forces with his compatriot once again, making that perfectly clear in the message he sent to the new signing on Twitter a matter of hours after his signing was announced.
