Fans have been enjoying a rather cheeky fan sign held up in support of Tottenham’s Richarlison.
During Tottenham’s visit to the City Ground for their Premier League clash with Nottingham Forest, a fan was spotted with a sign reading: ‘Richarlison, my mum prefers a Brazilian to a Forest’.
Fans were quick to notice on social media, enjoying the humorous sign held up by a young fan.
The Brazilian star did not disappoint though, as he opened the scoring late in the first half to help secure three points for Tottenham on the road.
In what was yet another eventual Premier League match, Yves Bissouma picked up his second red card of the season, ruling him out of next weeks Everton clash.

Tottenham’s Richarlison celebrates after scoring his side’s opening goal against Forest
Dejan Kulusevski was a joy to watch as he assisted Tottenham’s opener and scored the next
Destiny Udogie was booked in the immediate aftermath of Bissouma’s sending off, meaning he will also miss Tottenham’s upcoming match against Everton.
Bissouma’s red card is the fourth Spurs have been shown this season, with the 27-year-old previously being sent off against Luton for diving that earned him a second yellow card in the match.
The game was at deadlock for the first half until Richarlison broke the scoring with a cool header from Dejan Kulusevski’s cross.
Kulusevski, who created the opening goal for Richarlison and was the best attacking player on the pitch, added a second for Spurs after an error by Forest goalkeeper Matt Turner, and the visitors held out despite finishing the game with 10 men.
Yves Bissouma was sent off in the 70th minute, his second red card of the season, for a high tackle on Ryan Yates.

It was upgraded from a yellow on the advice of the VAR. Bissouma will be banned for four games and Destiny Udogie also miss the next match, at home against Everton, after collecting his fifth yellow card of the season.
