Richarlison under pressure as Tottenham chase edge in attack

Time is running out for Richarlison.

Injuries to Solanke and Kolo Muani briefly boosted his chances.

Since the opener he has not found the net.

Now Kolo Muani is fit and Richarlison must accept a bench role.

He failed to impress against Copenhagen, missing a penalty that Dane Scarlett won.

Competition is fierce for Spurs, who produced little attacking threat last weekend.

Reports suggest Spurs have funds to spend ahead of January.

Linked targets include Ivan Toney and Dusan Vlahovic.

Richarlison must seize minutes to stay in Brazil coach Carlo Ancelotti’s World Cup plans.

Tottenham face Manchester United on Saturday as the Premier League heats up.

TLDR

  • Richarlison is under pressure to deliver for Spurs as his chances dwindle.
  • Tottenham must improve attack and may pursue reinforcements in January.
  • Linked targets highlight the forward competition facing Spurs this season.
