Upcoming offer: Spurs are looking to sign an £84m Richarlison upgrade.
Considering they sold Harry Kane last summer, hired a new manager in Ange Postecoglou and are dealing with a significant number of injuries, qualifying for the Europa League has to be considered a successful season for Tottenham Hotspur.
However, if Daniel Levy and Co want to see the club progress next season, truly challenge the top teams in the Premier League and qualify for the Champions League, they will need to sign some talented players this summer.
Luckily for fans, this is entirely possible as the last player invited to move to N17 is one of the most dangerous strikers on the continent this season and could be the perfect upgrade for Richarlison.
Tottenham Hotspur Transfer News According to a recent report from Portuguese publication Jornal de Noticias (via Sport Witness), Tottenham are among the clubs interested in signing striker Evanilson of Porto this summer.
The report claims that, along with the Lilywhites, Chelsea and Manchester United both want the Brazilian and could submit their offers “soon”.
Unfortunately for all interested parties, the publication claims that given the 24-year-old will make his Seleção debut this weekend, Porto will likely ask teams to fully pay his 100 million release clause his euros, equivalent to around £84m.
It will be expensive and difficult to get across the finish line, but it’s certainly worth pursuing, especially since Richarlison hasn’t really proven why he should be a starting second baseman 9 of the club in the future.
How does Evanilson compare to Richarlison So if Levy and Co can work their magic in the coming weeks and bring Evanilson to North London, will they immediately replace Richarlison as target striker of Postecoglou?
In short, yes.
For example, when looking at the pair’s pure output this season, there is no comparison.
In 42 games this season, Porto’s “all-round striker”, as talent scout Jacek Kulig dubbed him, has scored 25 goals and provided seven assists, meaning he scores an average of one goal every one.
,31 games.
By comparison, while the former Everton man had a better season than last year, he only scored 12 goals in 31 games while providing 4 assists, meaning an average of 1 for every In 93 games he scored.
Unfortunately for the Lilywhites ace, the comparison is one-sided when looking at their underlying numbers.
For example, while the 6-foot “all-rounder”, as data analyst Ben Mattinson dubbed it, was second in shots on target, he was first in most metrics Other related items, including expected goals and assists, passing progress.
and execution, scoring on every shot on target, accurate passing, the act of shooting and creating a goal, successful posture and even ball recovery, all according to 90.
