New Tottenham Hotspur signing Richarlison returned to former club Everton to say his goodbyes on Tuesday.
The Brazil forward has signed a five-year deal at Spurs, moving to London after four years at Goodison Park. Richarlison notched 53 goals in 152 games in four years at Everton, joining the Toffees in 2018 after a year at Watford.
The forward has now been pictured returning to Finch Farm to bid farewell to his former teammates as well as the club's staff. It comes as the Brazil international has been told he will have to wait to make his Spurs debut after being handed a one-match ban after he celebrated a goal for his old club Everton last season by throwing a smoke flare.
And Tottenham's August and September TV fixtures have now been confirmed.

Richarlison's Everton return
A teary-eyed Richarlison has been pictured saying his goodbyes at former club Everton.
The Brazilian forward sealed his £60million switch to Tottenham Hotspur last week but has returned to his old club to say his goodbyes and clear out his locker. He was photographed looking like he may have shed a few tears alongside the club's legendary kitman Jimmy "Gonzo" Martin.
He also later shared photos on Twitter of himself embracing manager Frank Lampard and Colombian centre-back Yerry Mina alongside the handshake and face holding back tears emojis.
New signing to wait for debut
New Tottenham forward Richarlison has been handed a one-match ban after he celebrated a goal for his old club Everton last season by throwing a flare.
The 25-year-old, who completed a £60million move to Spurs last week, scored the Toffees’ only goal in a 1-0 win at home to Chelsea on May 1 and reacted to the strike by picking up a flare which was lying on the pitch and throwing it into the stands at Goodison Park. The Football Association announced on Tuesday he had been banned for one match and fined £25,000 after admitting improper conduct.
And it means Richarlison will now need to wait to make his debut for Tottenham, and won't be involved in their first Premier League fixture against Southampton on August 6.
TV fixtures confirmed
Tottenham Hotspur have been told which of their upcoming fixtures will be shown live on TV in August and September.
Spurs start their season on August 6 at home against Southampton with their first opening weekend 3pm Saturday kick-off in around three years, according to football.london. The Chelsea game in the second fixture of the season will now be played on Sunday, August 14 with a kick-off time of 4.30pm, before a 12.30pm kick-off against Wolves on August 20.
Clashes against Nottingham Forest, West Ham, Manchester City and Leicester City have also been chosen for live television coverage – including their Champions League games.
