Injury expert Dr. Rajpal Brar believes Richarlison’s injury problems are far from over.
The Brazilian has had yet another disappointing season, with the attacker missing most of the season due to injuries, missed a total 34 games since the start of the campaign.
In the 14 games he has featured in across all competitions, he has scored just 3 goals. Having signed from Everton for a significant £60m fee, he has failed to live up to his expectations. In 80 games across all competitions, he has contributed with just 18 goals in nearly 3 years. (Transfermarkt)
It has been reported that the North London club is growing increasingly frustrated with Richarlison’s recurring fitness issues and inconsistent performances.
Despite being under contract with Spurs until 2027, his future at the club appears uncertain, specially given Tottenham’s recent signing of Dominic Solanke and Mathys Tel.
Reports have indicated that this could be his final season at the club with the club looking to cash in on him in the summer.
Injury expert shares concerning update on Richarlison
He is currently out with a calf injury which he sustained during the match against Brentford. While he is expected to return from his current injury in March, injury expert Dr.Brar expects him to continue to struggle with fitness issues until the end of the season.
Speaking to Tottenham News, he said:
“This one is calf-related and it’s one that’s going to keep him out for a few weeks.”
“Based on his recent injuries and where we are in the season, I wouldn’t expect him to get out of this cycle until the season ends and he has the needed time to really build up his fitness and health.
“It’s really difficult to be chasing health in the middle of a season.“
TBH Says:
We need to cash in on Richarlison this summer. The Saudis have previously show their willingness to spend a significant fee to sign him and the club should be seeking to offload him to the Saudi Pro League. He is hardly available for us and when he is fit, his performances have been far too underwhelming.
