Former Arsenal star Jack Wilshere has claimed that he believes that Richarlison would not get into the Arsenal starting team if he had signed for the Gunners while admitting that the Brazilian needs to come good on his potential. Richarlison is set to join Tottenham from Everton this summer.

Tottenham Hotspurs have confirmed that they have completed the signing of Brazilian attacker Richarlison from Everton for an initial fee of  £50 million plus £10 million in add-ons if certain clauses are achieved. The Brazilian has signed a five-year deal with the side through to the summer of 2027.

Everton boss Frank Lampard believes that the Toffees can survive and go on to replicate the success that West Ham United have had in the near future but added that their focus is on the now. The Goodison Park side have endured a tough season and currently sit just one point above the drop zone.

According to Football Insider, Richarlison has told his agent to start looking for a new club as the Brazilian wants to leave Everton in order to play Champions League football next season. The 24-year-old forward signed for the Toffees in the summer of 2018 and has since netted 49 goals.
