Tottenham injury woes deepen as Richarlison ruled out for seven weeks

The 28-year-old has been Tottenham’s main striker so far this season, with Dominic Solanke only just returning to action.

Richarlison is Tottenham’s top Premier League goal scorer so far this season with seven goals from his 21 games.

He picked up what appeared to be a hamstring injury in Tottenham’s 2-1 FA Cup defeat to Aston Villa on Saturday (January 10).

Speaking to the press ahead of their game against West Ham, Thomas Frank has now confirmed Richarlison will be sidelined.

He told reporters: "Richy, unfortunately, got a hamstring injury that will keep him out for up to seven weeks."
