A short time ago this afternoon, Watford officially confirmed the signing of Brazilian attacker Richarlison.
The highly rated 20 year old moves to Vicarage Road on a five year deal and we have apparently beaten off some stiff competition for his services.
His work permit was secured earlier today, so he can now begin life at the club properly.
The pacey forward has an eye for a goal and he is a Brazil Under 20 international and he comes in from Fluminese where he scored 19 times in 67 games.
