Richarlison has broken his silence following a hamstring injury that saw him forced off against Aston Villa as he set up Dominic Solanke’s second goal of the game.

Richarlison looks to have suffered a hamstring strain and is now set for another prolonged spell on the sidelines as he recovers. The 27-year-old had only just returned from an injury issue which had seen him miss most of the season so far and now he is out again.

Now, he has sent a clear message to Spurs supporters as he looks to bounce back from yet another major injury disappointment.

Richarlison breaks silence after injury setback

Richarlison has taken to Instagram to share his disappointment towards his latest injury setback which forced him off against Villa.

The Brazilian has revealed that he is gutted to have picked up yet another injury as he was just starting to enjoy training and playing for Tottenham again. However, he is defiant in his approach to this latest setback and is ready to overcome it.

Richarlison has said: “Difficult moment that I will overcome again. I was very happy training and playing and suddenly injury comes again. Hard to talk at a time like this, I only ask that you pray for me and that God gives me protection.”

How long is Richarlison expected to be out for?

Richarlison is expected to miss a minimum of three weeks with a hamstring injury, according to Paul O’Keefe.

There is a two-week international break coming up, however, he will miss games against Galatasaray, Ipswich Town, Manchester City, Roma, Fulham and Bournemouth.

This comes as a major blow for Ange Postecoglou who had just got back his backup option for Dominic Solanke, who needs a rest. Will Lankshear is set to start up front against Galatasaray.

Cristian Romero also suffered an injury against Villa although he has been selected for international duty with Argentina and is only set for a short out.
