Former Everton forward Richarlison will miss Brazil's friendly against Morocco this week after he was forced off injured for Tottenham Hotspur Hotspur against Southampton on Saturday.
And the 25-year-old now faces a race to be fit to play against his old club Everton when Premier League fixtures resume after the international break.
Richarlison has struggled for consistent game time since completing a £50m plus add-ons move from Goodison Park to Spurs last summer. But having started for Antonio Conte's side against the Saints, he left the field in tears after only four minutes. It has been suggested that Richarlison went down injured during the pre-match warm-up but was still deemed fit enough to the start the game, which resulted in an epic 3-3 draw, and which boosted Liverpool's top-four chances but didn't help Everton in their battle to beat the drop.
