Richarlison's relationship with Tottenham has cooled down to the point where he has been relegated to the U21 team and his camp is even trying to terminate his contract. His former youth club Vasco da Gama is hoping to benefit from the situation, as reported by Globo Esporte. The problems have been ongoing for a while, with Richarlison making it clear during pre-season that he was open to leaving Tottenham. A return to Everton was considered a serious option, but the deal ultimately fell through when Iliman Ndiaye chose Manchester City instead. This led to unhappiness in Richarlison's camp over how Tottenham and De Zerbi handled the situation.
