While the list of Everton players competing at the World Cup in Qatar from next month may be limited in numbers, one former player could earn the Toffees money months after exiting the club.
Richarlison exited Goodison Park back in June, his move to Tottenham Hotspur worth up to £60m and arriving on the final day of the financial year for Everton, meaning that they could book the guaranteed sum of £50m in their 2021/22 accounts, eased the pressure on the club from an accounting and profit and sustainability perspective.
But despite him having traded the blue of Everton for the white of Spurs, the 25-year-old Brazilian could still hand a financial boost to the Toffees months on from his departure, simply by being part of the Brazil squad at this winter's World Cup.
