Everton striker Richarlison: Benitez playing me in best position | OneFootball

Everton striker Richarlison says he's happy with the role manager Rafa Benitez is playing him in.

Richarlison has been playing as a striker for Benitez rather than playing from the flank, where both Carlo Ancelotti and Marco Silva utilised him in the past.

And that's where the 24-year-old believes he can produce his best football for the Blues.

He told Everton's official programme: "With Rafa Benitez I'm playing more centrally, a position where I feel more comfortable.

"Playing centrally here and for Brazil is really important to me.

"I think everything is in place for me to score more goals in the Premier League, as I'll be nearer the goal. Last season, I played in numerous positions, on the right and left.

"I scored the most goals when I played centrally. It's my preferred position and playing there this season, I feel better and more confident and I hope to score many more goals.

"I'll give my all to meet my personal targets."
