Richarlison raves about Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin
Richarlison has suggested that Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin has improved leaps and bounds in recent years.
The Brazilian forward has said that he has seen the England international grow into a top-level striker.
He further adds that Calvert-Lewin has got a lot of self-belief, and he is constantly looking to improve in every area of his game.
“I have seen Calvert-Lewin grow into a top-level centre-forward in my time at the club,” he told evertonfc.com.
“He is a guy with a lot of self-belief and completely committed to improving every aspect of his game.
“Any side would miss a striker of Dominic’s quality. The same with Yerry Mina and Abdoulaye Doucoure, two big personalities in the middle of our team.”
Injuries
Everton will travel to Manchester to face the Premier League champions at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday in the Premier League.
The Toffees are without a win in their last five games, and it will be a daunting task for them to pick up a positive result against Pep Guardiola’s side.
Calvert-Lewin has been injured for a while. He was the club’s top scorer last season, but has only managed just three Premier League appearances so far.
The 24-year-old will miss the clash against Man City as well.
Injuries to key players have hurt the team badly, but Richarlison believes that the squad has got enough quality to deal with it.
He is also spot on about the England striker. Only a couple of seasons ago, Calvert-Lewin was only making a handful of appearances from the bench.
It was Carlo Ancelotti who transformed him completely and made him one of the finest strikers in the country at the moment.
In other Everton news, the Toffees are demanding at least £30m for one of their star players.
