Unfortunately, Tottenham will have to face Everton without their star striker, Dominic Solanke, this coming Sunday. The 27-year-old, who has been in top form this season with seven goals in the Premier League, has sustained a muscular injury, as reported by MailOnline. This news is a major blow for Spurs as they head to Goodison Park for what is expected to be a challenging match.
According to the report, there are concerns that Solanke may miss more than just the game against Everton. This is a cause for worry as Tottenham has a packed schedule in the coming weeks. After their clash with Everton, they will be traveling to Hoffenheim for a Europa League match before returning home to host Leicester City in the Premier League the following Sunday. Solanke's absence will surely be felt in these crucial matches.
Adding to their injury woes, Tottenham will also be without seven other key players for their game against Everton on Sunday. In addition, there are doubts over the availability of Brennan Johnson and Yves Bissouma. This leaves manager Ange Postecoglou with limited options up front, especially with Solanke out of the picture.
One possible solution for Tottenham is to have Richarlison step in and take over Solanke's position. The Brazilian striker recently returned from a two-month absence and made an appearance in Tottenham's 2-1 defeat to Arsenal earlier this week. Postecoglou has praised Richarlison's performance and believes that he can be a reliable replacement for Solanke.
"We've been really careful in the way we've brought him back this time. He's probably been ready to go for a couple of weeks. We've given him extra work," Postecoglou said of Richarlison on Friday. "I thought he was really good when he came on the other night [at Arsenal], you could see his quality. He is one of these guys that does lead by example, particularly when he plays. It's great to have him back."
Postecoglou also expressed his confidence in Richarlison's ability to regain his form and fitness in the next few weeks. He plans to give the striker more playing time in the game against Everton to help him build his confidence and make a significant impact on the pitch. "If we can keep him fit, I've got no doubt he'll be a really important player for us," Postecoglou added.
Although Solanke's injury is a setback for Tottenham, having Richarlison back in the lineup provides some hope for the team. With his quality and leadership on the field, he could prove to be a crucial player in their upcoming matches. The fans are certainly looking forward to seeing him in action again and are hopeful that he can help Tottenham secure a victory against Everton on Sunday.
