Richarlison latest from Cristian Stellini at Deepdale

Sat 28 January 2023, 21:50|Tottenham Hotspur

Cristian Stellini reported that Richarlison missed our FA Cup victory at Preston North End on Saturday evening with a 'small problem'.

Speaking after our 3-0 win at Deepdale, Antonio Conte's assistant said he expected the Brazilian forward to return to training next week.

Asked in his post-match press conference why Richy was missing, Cristian replied: "He has a small problem in the last few days. We tried to recover him, but it was not a good idea. We had just Harry Kane sick and so it was not a good idea to risk him. We will find Richarlison next week."

Asked if it was the same hamstring issue that kept him out after the World Cup, Cristian added: "No, no, no, it was a different injury. He recovered well. He has a small problem in his adductor, but nothing serious."
