Fans got a glimpse of the tattoo from Dom.Tattoo, who has produced artwork for a number of London-based footballers after it was shared on Instagram.

Richarlison shines in Qatar

Richarlison reportedly got the new tattoo after Brazil's 2022 World Cup campaign in Brazil.

The Tottenham Hotspur forward was part of the South American team which was eliminated in the quarter-finals.

Tite's charges were unable to get past a spirited Croatia side as they were eliminated via post-match penalties.

However, on a personal level, Richarlison had a dream campaign with the Samba Boys as he bagged three goals.

The three goals include a stunner the former Everton striker scored against Serbia in the group stages.
