Back To The Roots: These Players Returned To Their Boyhood Club-Trending
Arsenal has suffered a significant setback after allowing Alexandre Lacazette to join his boyhood club. Other notable players who have returned to their roots include Gianluigi Buffon, Fernando Torres, Carlos Tevez, and Robin Van Persie. Lacazette joined Arsenal in the 2017/18 season after leaving Lyon, and he will now return in the 2022/23 season. He fell short of expectations, which explains why Arsenal decided not to renew his contract this summer.However, players like Gianluigi Buffon, who left Parma in the 2001/02 season and went on to become one of the best goalkeepers in the world, traveled all over Europe. In the 2021/22 season, he returned to Parma. The athlete, who is at least 43 years old, has no plans to retire anytime soon, and he could continue to play until he is 45 years old. Fernando Torres, who has previously played for Liverpool and Chelsea, departed Atletico Madrid in 2007/08 season before returning in 2015/16 season.Carlos Tevez, who played for both Manchester United and Manchester City, left his boyhood club Boca Juniors in the 2004/05 season, but returned in the 2015/16 season after winning numerous European titles, although he has now retired.

Tottenham is "closer" to signing the Premier League star than Arsenal.
Tottenham are said to be ahead of Arsenal in the race to sign Everton forward Richarlison.
The Brazil international has been a standout performer at Goodison Park for some time, but after narrowly avoiding relegation last season, he may feel the time has come to go on to bigger and greater things.
According to Goal, Arsenal had previously expressed interest in Richarlison, but Spurs now appear to be ahead of their north London rivals in the hunt for his signature.Richarlison may be an excellent signing for Antonio Conte as he looks to build on last season's success, with new signings certainly needed if the team is to finish in the top four once more.
This might be a setback for Arsenal, who have been forced to make changes up front following the exits of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette, as well as Nicolas Pepe's poor form.
