There is no denying that there is a lot of talk about Brazilian footballers heading to Everton right now.
The Toffees have been linked with Samba stars such as Malcom and David Neres, whilst Richarlison and Bernard already don the Everton badge on a weekly basis.
Intriguingly, the ‘South America x Everton’ crossover has kept up its form with reports linking Brazilian wonderkid Reinier with a move to Goodison Park – a prospect that most of you who play Football Manager will know quite well.
The Flamengo attacker has already got the likes of Real Madrid, Manchester City, Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan hot on his heels, but it is believed that Goodison Park is his preferred destination due to the presence of Richarlison at the club.
Both men are Brazilian, and both have featured for their country at youth level – Richarlison has since made senior appearances and even scored in the Copa America final which Brazil won.
But how do the duo fare when you compare their stats from the Sudamericano tournament?
Of course, you may have noticed that these statistics are from different age variations of the same tournament.
However, Richarlison didn’t even feature at the Under-17 version, making his first appearances for his country at Under-20 level – if anything, that only reinforces the purpose of the article.
Reinier appears to be showing just as much potential as the Everton No.30 was back in 2017, if not more.
Check out some amazing tekkers in the video below…
The teenager linked with an initial £36m move to Merseyside scored one more goal than Richarlison at the Sudamericano despite playing four games less, and also recorded one assist.
Reinier also embarked on more dribbles per game, and created 0.5 more chances on average.
It is still early days and the teenager hasn’t even completed his move to Everton yet, but on the basis of this comparison, you could easily argue that Reinier is showing enough potential to reach the heights that Richarlison is hitting now – he could easily surpass that level too.
