Everton boss Marco Silva expects Richarlison to build on his winning Copa America campaign with Brazil.

He crowned a stunning individual campaign with the spot kick which sealed Brazil's 3-1 win over Peru and confirmed his country's home Copa America triumph.

Doing well in an important competition with the national team gives Richarlison a lot of good things," Silva told evertontv.

It will give him extra belief and possibly more consistency as a football player, which is something we are working with him to achieve.

He has the other things he needs; he is a boy who likes to learn every day and work really hard to achieve what he is in his career.

He has high quality and we are really happy to have a player like him in our squad.

You are talking about a young player, just 22, and he has scored many important goals for us. He got into his national team and you know how difficult that is."
