Spurs' Richarlison on cup exclusion: 'Why?'

Tottenham forward Richarlison, 29, responded with 'Why?' and a tearful emoji on social media after manager Roberto De Zerbi confirmed he would not be selected for the Carabao Cup match against Liverpool, despite being cup-eligible after being excluded from the 25-man Premier League squad. De Zerbi stated that 'nothing has changed' regarding Richarlison's situation, describing the issue as being 'between the player and the club.' Richarlison's future at Spurs remains unresolved after he declined a contract extension, with proposed moves to Everton, Turkey, and Vasco de Gama all falling through.
