Richarlison sends clear message to Tottenham fans ahead of West Ham clash
Today at 11:15 AM
Richarlison’s season has been riddled with injuries yet again, however, the Tottenham Hotspur forward has sent supporters good news ahead of the clash with West Ham.
The Brazilian has played just 25 minutes of football as he has been sidelined through injury and also missed pre-season with an issue.
Unfortunately, that has been the story of his Spurs career since he made the £60 million switch from Everton, with issue after issue.
But before the London derby against the Hammers, Richarlison has made a statement on his Instagram account that will excite the Liywhites’ supporters.
Richarlison’s message to Tottenham fans
Richarlison is back from injury and is available to face West Ham United handing Tottenham a major boost ahead of the game.
The striker being fit to play will be huge for Ange Postecoglou’s squad as Dominic Solanke has been his only available option for the number nine position.
Will Lankshear was even handed his full debut for the North London club in the Europa League in order to rest Solanke for the trip to Hungary.
Now, the Australian manager will have a striker option off the bench and someone who he can rotate Solanke with throughout the different competitions.
Tottenham have a busy schedule coming up with four games in the next 11 days so having Richarlison help elevate the pressure on certain players being forced to play. Richarlison’s three-word message to supporters on his Instagram story said: ‘It’s comeback time’.
How could Tottenham line up against West Ham?
Heung-min Son is also set to return from injury against the East London club and is expected to replace Timo Werner in the line-up. For Richarlison, the Europa League clash with AZ Alkmaar is a more realistic return date.
Elsewhere, there have been calls for Djed Spence and Radu Dragusin to come in for Cristian Romero and Destiny Udogie after the Brighton defeat, but the Aussie coach is set to stick with the same back-four.
Tottenham's predicted line-up vs West Ham: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Maddison, Kulusevski; Johnson, Son, Solanke.
