Spurs manager Roberto De Zerbi recently gave Richarlison a particularly painful and meaningful signal by not giving him the last foreign spot in the Premier League selection, but giving it to Xavi Simons instead, Voetbalzone reports. Richarlison was sent back to the Under 21 team of Spurs and seemed to be leaving the club this summer, but an agreement was never reached. Vasco da Gama in Brazil seemed to offer a solution, with a definitive transfer deal, as Spurs had already reached the maximum number of players they could loan out to international clubs according to FIFA rules. The Brazilian club had reached an agreement with Spurs on a transfer fee, but Richarlison himself did not come to an agreement with Vasco da Gama.
Richarlison Transfer to Vasco da Gama Falls Through
The transfer of Richarlison to Vasco da Gama has collapsed at the last minute. The 29-year-old forward, who has not been able to count on playing time in the first team at Tottenham Hotspur, failed to reach a personal agreement with the Brazilian club, according to The Independent, citing sources from Press Association (PA).
