In the Premier League’s MD6 on Sunday, Tottenham travels to Manchester United at Old Trafford. It’s possible that Spurs have gained momentum in advance of the game.
Brazilian striker Richarlison has returned to training, giving Tottenham Hotspur a welcome boost ahead of their pivotal Premier League matchup against Manchester United at Old Trafford this Sunday.
Due to an injury received during training, the 27-year-old attacker has been sidelined; nonetheless, his return to the field is encouraging for manager Ange Postecoglou.
Spurs, who are looking to continue their winning streak and pick up a crucial three points against United, are hoping that Richarlison’s return to training will come at a crucial moment.
But even with this positive development, questions about captain Heung-min Son’s fitness still exist. The South Korean player’s fitness for the next game is in question after he strained his hamstring during Tottenham’s 3-0 Europa League victory against Qarabag.
Spurs supporters are concerned about Son’s injury because of his leadership and offensive threat, which are essential to the team’s success.
Spurs get a boost before facing Manchester United
Even if Son is unable to play, Richarlison’s return gives Tottenham fans hope that they can still field a potent offensive lineup.
Richarlison’s return to the field is encouraging news for Tottenham, as Michael Bridge of Sky Sports noted: “Ange told us last week that Richarlison is not being considered at the moment, he is injured. But that is potentially some good news for Spurs there.” Although it is unlikely that the Brazilian will start, his inclusion in the squad adds much-needed depth, especially with a busy schedule of fixtures looming in both domestic and European competitions.
Despite the fact that Richarlison has only appeared as a substitute twice in the Premier League this year owing to injury, the Tottenham supporters will be happy to see him back.
Despite transfer rumors circulating during the summer, the Brazilian decided to stay with the team, and he now has to contend with Dominic Solanke, a recent addition, for a starting position.
