Tottenham has reportedly broken its club record transfer fee with a £60 million ($72.6 million) move for Everton forward Richarlison.
The club announced a five-year deal for the Brazilian on Friday, subject to a work permit.
After manager Antonio Conte helped lead Spurs back to the Champions League with a fourth-place finish, one of the club’s top priorities was to sign a forward who could take the load off stars Harry Kane and Son Heung-min. Beating out interest from London rivals Chelsea and Arsenal, Tottenham has its man in the 25-year-old Brazilian.
Since arriving at Everton in a roughly £50 million move from Watford in 2018, the forward has led the Toffees in scoring with 48 goals in 111 total appearances.
