£50m may soon look money well spent on Daniel Levy’s mid-life Tottenham crisisRicharlison is not everyone’s cup of tea but he has taken every step in his stride to end up at Tottenham and Brazil when few believed.Richarlison de Andrade is a 6ft, 25-year-old Brazilian striker who plays for Tottenham Hotspur and who scored two goals on Friday against Ghana for his country.
At this point, Watford, at the time a Premier League club, swaggered into the room carrying a garden waste sack of £11.2 million in used 20s, shouted ‘get in the van’ at our man and drove him to the notorious wastelands of Hertfordshire. Turned out he was right because the Brazilian scored 14 times in his first season and 15 in the second, by which time Silva had been sacked after 18 months in charge. Across the following campaigns he would play under four different managers, all of them doing as badly as each other. His form was only good in flashes but he scraped together 13 goals and 11 in his last two seasons at Goodison. Ended with 53 goals in 152 games.
Better yet, his international career is blossoming in a World Cup year, having now scored six goals in five games for Brazil, and 16 in 37 overall. Again proof that the better the players he plays with, the better he plays.It’s too early in his tenure at Spurs to suggest anyone except his mother actually loves Richarlison and he does have a tendency to sport the scowl of a man who has just swallowed a wasp.
