Everton has confirmed the £40 million ($52.6 million) signing of Richarlison from Watford.
Richarlison told evertontv: “I want to have a lot of success with Everton. I think it is going to be important for me here to be with Marco Silva again. I will learn more because I am still learning as a player and I aim to develop and grow here. Everton have put their faith in me and I intend to honour this shirt and demonstrate on the pitch why I came here.”
Richarlison joined Watford, where Marco Silva was newly installed as manager, from Fluminense last summer. He scored five times in his opening 12 Premier League matches, but did not find the net again for the rest of the campaign.
