Richarlison Named In Brazil Squad For Home Copa America

Everton forward Richarlison is included in the 23-man Brazil squad which will bid to win its home Copa America when the competition kicks off next month.

The 22-year-old, Everton's Young Player of the Season, was summoned for his international debut six weeks after transferring to Goodison Park from Watford last summer.

Richarlison scored twice on his first start for Brazil back in September – a 5-0 victory over El Salvador – and has established himself as a key figure in manager Tite's plans.

The attacker, who scored 13 Premier League goals in 2018-19, has accumulated eight caps and started his country's past three matches.
