Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi declined to confirm if Richarlison will remain with the club amid reports the forward is attempting to terminate his contract. The 29-year-old has been linked with a potential loan to Brazilian club Vasco da Gama before the transfer window closes. Richarlison has not featured for Tottenham since their opening match of the Premier League season and was excluded from the team's 25-man squad on September 3. While Vasco da Gama director of football Admar Lopes confirmed negotiations, Tottenham reportedly favors a permanent sale rather than a loan. De Zerbi stated he does not know if the player has a future at the club, noting that the situation involves internal club matters. Tottenham enters Saturday's match against Everton without a goal or a win in the current league campaign.
