Brazil star Richarlison credits Everton boss Marco Silva for helping him become a better goalscorer

Richarlison has credited Marco Silva's coaching with accelerating his progress this season as he looks to take his Everton form onto the international stage with Brazil.

The 21-year-old has ramped up his Premier League goal output in 2018-19, netting 12 in 29 appearances for the Toffees compared to five in 38 for Watford last season.

He goes into Brazil's friendly matches against Panama and Czech Republic having scored in Everton's last two games, and is grateful for the support of his club coach.
