Tottenham will be without Richarlison for their trip to Old Trafford on Wednesday after the striker suffered a calf injury in their 2-0 win over Everton on Saturday. He limped off on 52 minutes and was later seen on crutches post-match.
The striker is set to be sidelined for a number of weeks with grave concern about his availability for next month’s World Cup. Brazil’s opening group match against Serbia takes place on November 24. An emotional Richarlison gave further insight into the injury.
"It's kind of hard to say because it's so close to realising my dream [playing at the World Cup]," he told ESPN Brasil. "I've already suffered an injury similar to this, I hope it can heal as soon as possible, or less.
