Tottenham managing director Fabio Paratici hails Richarlison and calls the £60million forward 'perfect' for the club... As the former Juventus chief claims Spurs have closed the gap with the Premier League's top teams

Tottenham managing director Fabio Paratici has hailed the arrival of Brazilian forward Richarlison, and said signing the former Everton star was an easy decision for the club.

Arriving for an initial fee of £50million earlier this summer, Richarlison could become the most expensive signing in Spurs' history with an additional £10million in add-ons.

However, despite only starting one Premier League game so far this season for Antonio Conte's team, Paratici is convinced that signing the Brazil international will prove to be good business for the club.
