Cheltenham’s Cotterill: ‘His attitude was great’
Tottenham’s forgotten man Richarlison has been hailed for his “immaculate” attitude after he scored for the club’s under-21s on Tuesday night. Richarlison has not played for Spurs’ senior side since an opening-day defeat at Brentford on 22 August after he was left out of the 25-man Premier League squad list, having been told he was not part of first-team plans for this season.
Failed moves to Trabzonspor and Vasco da Gama, after talks with Everton collapsed in the final days before the transfer window in England shut, have left Richarlison in limbo for the first half of the campaign. However, the Brazil international earned himself fans after he made a surprise appearance in the Jersey Mike’s (EFL) Trophy tie at Cheltenham. Richarlison, 29, scored after 56 minutes in a 2-2 draw and converted a spot-kick in a 7-6 penalty shootout loss for Wayne Burnett’s side.
