Tottenham leaves Richarlison out of Premier League squad amid exit talks

Tottenham leaves Richarlison out of Premier League squad amid exit talks Sports news: Tottenham has made a surprising decision by excluding Richarlison from the Premier League squad for the new season. Although Richarlison scored 11 goals in the Premier League last season, he is no longer suitable for the new football system under Roberto De Zerbi. New arrivals like Mudryk, Sávio, Marmoush, Tonali, Tosin and Mateus Fernandes have brought a clear change, helping Tottenham aim for the top 4. Richarlison is in the process of negotiating a transfer, but Tottenham has stated that no offers have been received. This article analyzes the reasons, financial risks and impact on the dressing room. Context: Tottenham under De Zerbi is making a major squad overhaul. After registering 6 new players, the London club is rebuilding to compete for European places. Richarlison, who scored 11 goals last season, is now excluded from the squad. De Zerbi announced the decision before the transfer deadline. This is a strategic move to focus on younger, more technical players. Tactical analysis: Richarlison is known for strong pressing, but under De Zerbi, he lacks link-up play and first touch. De Zerbi's system requires forwards to receive between the lines and combine quickly. Richarlison fits better with fast-transition teams like Everton or Brazil. New signings like Mudryk (pace, shooting), Sávio (technical wing play), Marmoush (versatile mobility) fit better with the possession model. De Zerbi emphasized that Richarlison "said too many times he wants to leave", so excluding him from the squad was inevitable. Key data: Richarlison scored 11 goals in 2026-26, matching other forwards at Spurs. However, his xG may not be as high as the new forwards. The new signings provide attacking depth. Tottenham spent 6 million pounds on transfers, showing big investment in the squad. Contrarian angle: Excluding Richarlison may be due to high wages (£150k/week). Tottenham is trying to reduce the financial burden. However, Richarlison could be an alternative if no offers come. Social media may divide as Richarlison posted an Instagram calling for "respect" and emphasizing loyalty. De Zerbi may have written Richarlison off, but the dressing room may have players supporting him. Summary: Tottenham is building a new squad. Richarlison needs to find a new club before the Turkish deadline. The result against Newcastle will decide if De Zerbi continues or not. Tottenham needs to quickly integrate the new signings to avoid pressure. Next, Tottenham will face top 4 pressure. The new signings need to integrate. Richarlison may receive offers from Turkey. This is a lesson for clubs on squad management.
