Neymar Jr has been backing Richarlison this week as he has publicly displayed his affection for the Everton attacker in an interview with EvertonTV. The world’s most expensive player stated that: “Everybody knows Richarlison is a really great player and a really good guy”. He added: “My son is already asking me to do Richarlison’s pigeon dance”. Neymar’s comments from Brazil’s training base in London just show how well the 21-year-old is supported, not only in Merseyside but also by his international teammates. The comments from the Paris forward have certainly got Everton fans talking.

A fair few fans would also be eager to see Neymar in an Everton shirt one day, however unlikely it may seem.
