Richarlison has been omitted from Tottenham Hotspur's Premier League squad for the first half of the season, as the club does not consider him part of their future plans. This decision was communicated to the player prior to the transfer deadline.
Manager Roberto de Zerbi indicated last week that the Brazil international had expressed a desire to leave the club. A move to his former club Everton appeared imminent before Tuesday's transfer deadline, but the deal ultimately did not materialize.
Despite the failed move, Richarlison is still expected to depart Tottenham in the coming days, with the transfer windows in Turkey and Saudi Arabia remaining open. He joined Tottenham from Everton in the summer of 2022, having previously played for Watford after arriving in England in 2018.
