Richarlison has been called up to the senior Brazil team for the first time in his career.
The 21-year-old has received ten caps at U20 level for his country, but could be set to receive his first senior cap in either of Brazil’s upcoming matches against the United States and El Salvador.

A blistering start to the season came to a juddering halt for Richarlison on Saturday, as the forward was sent off against Bournemouth for flicking his head at an opponent.
Despite now being faced with a spell on the sidelines domestically, things seem to be taking off internationally for the youngster.
A dominant performance against Wolves in the opening game of the season saw Richarlison hit the back of the net twice.
In only his second year in English football (following a move from Fluminense), Richarlison looks to be all too familiar with what it takes to succeed in the Premier League.
