It takes quite a player to cater to the Goodison Park faithful. Only performing on the pitch is not enough to elevate to cult hero status amongst the very demanding Everton support, as it takes a lot off the pitch as well to please the Toffees’ followers.
Richarlison has been doing just that in recent weeks – the Brazilian forward has excelled for the Merseyside outfit since his arrival in 2018 – but has recently turned up his game by a whole gear.
Richarlison has netted four times in his last four outings for Everton in all competitions, with the latest of them coming in a 2-0 derby win over Liverpool. He opened the scoring for Carlo Ancelotti’s side on the night, as not only has the forward excelled on the pitch – but he has also done his best to please fans off the pitch.
Richarlison recently made the rounds on social media after a picture of him relaxing in his leisure time surfaced on Twitter. An Everton fan’s tweet (scroll down) featured a relaxing Richarlison walking his dog around Crosby – while wearing his Everton shorts.
The picture went viral amongst the Everton faithful on Twitter, all of whom were singing hymns of praise for the Brazilian forward – as not only has he been one of the club’s best performers over their recent period of good form, but he also seems to enjoy the club and truly seems to be a part of it.
The gesture by the forward is certain to have pulled over a lot of supporters on his side – if there weren’t enough already. Richarlison seems to be loving life at the moment, and nights like his last outing for the club at Anfield will be certain to help him look towards being ‘nothing but the best’ at Goodison Park.
