Battle of the Brazilians! Spurs arrival Richarlison scored more goals than Gabriel Jesus last season, but the new Arsenal No 9 created more chances and bagged more assists... so which will emerge the better signing?

Two Brazilian internationals. Two 25-year-olds. Two centre forwards who enjoy operating in wide areas.

Gabriel Jesus and Richarlison are set to go head-to-head next season after their blockbuster moves to north London, with Arsenal and Spurs each confident that they have snatched the better deal.

Tottenham announced the £60million signing of Richarlison on Friday, less than a week after Jesus arrived at the Emirates for £45m.
