Richarlison in tears as he reveals fear of missing World Cup with Brazil
Richarlison was in tears as the Tottenham forward admitted his hopes of making Brazil’s World Cup squad are in serious doubt due to a calf injury.
The 25-year-old was forced off with the injury in the second half of Tottenham’s 2-0 victory over Everton on Saturday evening.
Richarlison is hoping the scans will show only minor damage but he remains in a race to be fit to make Brazil’s final 26-man squad, which will be announced on November 7.
An initial 55-man shortlist will be named by Brazil’s head coach Tite on October 21.
The five-time world champions are in Group G alongside Cameroon, Serbia and Switzerland.
When asked about his injury after Tottenham’s win, a tearful Richarlison told ESPN Brasil: ‘It’s kind of hard to speak because it’s close to a realization, to my dream.

‘I’ve already suffered an injury like this, it’s similar, but I hope it can heal as soon as possible. At Everton I was out for around two months.
‘I know it’s hard to talk at this moment but let’s see, I’ll recover. On Monday I will have more tests but even walking hurts. Let’s wait, I may be in Qatar.
‘It’s all so close, it’s about a month to go, and we’ve been getting ready, working every day so that nothing serious can happen.
‘Unfortunately, today I had this calf injury but now it’s just a matter of waiting, doing the treatment every day so that I can recover as soon as possible.’
