Although Croatia’s victory over Brazil in the World Cup may have prevented Richarlison from becoming legendary status, his tattoo artist wasn’t so sure.
The Tottenham striker had a brilliant start to his stint in Qatar and appeared to be the ultimate piece, but it all came to an emotional end in the quarterfinals.
Now out injured for Spurs and taking a back seat as the World Cup reaches its conclusion, Richarlison doesn’t want to forget his Doha experience any time soon, so has decided to get it immortalised.
Posing with a stencil on his back before the arduous process of getting inked begins, Richarlison showed off a gigantic back tattoo with Brazil greats Ronaldo, Neymar, and himself…
Despite the odd choice to include his own face on his ‘Mount Rushmore back’, the artwork is still rather spectacular, and features what appears to be a young fan in a Richarlison shirt looking over favelas.

It also contains the message ‘you made Brazil smile, Pele’ in reference to a comment the all-time great left on Richarlison’s Instagram following the country’s World Cup exit.
The 25-year-old former Everton and Watford forward was lucky enough to spend time with both of the other faces on his tattoo, playing alongside Neymar while being interviewed by Ronaldo.
He even taught Ronaldo his pigeon dance goal celebration that hit the headlines after he managed to get national coach Tite involved after a goal against Korea.
