Everton boss Marco Silva has told new signing Richarlison that he must learn English to fully integrate himself into the Everton squad.
The 21-year old Brazilian lit up the field for the Toffees in their opening game of the season, drawing 2-2 with Wolves at Molineux where the former Watford man notched both of Everton’s goals.
While Silva has praised the immediate impact Richarlison has had in just one game for the club, he explained how he has told the player that he must improve his English, as well as fellow new signings Yerry Mina and Bernard.

Silva also admitted that his own English skills need improvement as well as that of his new players.
Talking ahead of this weekend’s clash with Southampton, as reported by The Guardian, Silva said:
Richarlison has settled in well, he is a fantastic professional and a good boy.
But he has to learn as much English as he can and we are pushing him on that because it is important for him and for us. He is doing it but he needs to improve his English.
That applies to me as well. I am learning it all the time. I have already told Bernard and Mina. They have to learn English as well.
Silva added that while Richarlison has impressed so far, attention cannot be focused solely on him, as he’s still a young player. He continued:
Everybody likes him and he is enjoying the environment. He performed very well last week but we have to be calm with him.
He is a young boy with a big talent but we cannot put all the headlights on Richarlison.
