THE BALL – Conte devastated by injury to Richarlison (Tottenham)

Tottenham manager Antonio Conte has revealed that Richarlison will still need three to four weeks to recover from the injury sustained while playing for Brazil in their World Cup match against Croatia.

“I was talking to the medical department and they told me that Richarlison will be out for another three or four weeks,” explained the coach at a press conference.

This means that the Brazilian striker will miss the second leg of the Premier League, against Brentford, as well as the duels with Aston Villa, Crystal Palace and Portsmouth (this for the FA Cup). It will be a doubt for the derby against Arsenal, scheduled for January 15th.
