Tottenham Hotspur of the English Premier League (EPL) lost Richarlison and Bissouma ahead of an all-out campaign. With frontline striker Richarlison missing, Son Heung-min's place at the front line is certain.
Tottenham will play the 2023-24 EPL round 34 match against Manchester City at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England at 4 a.m. on the 15th (Korean time).
Tottenham, aiming to qualify for the UEFA Champions League (UCL) next season, must put all their effort into this game.
Tottenham, who recorded 19 wins, 6 draws, and 11 losses (63 points) and was in 5th place with 2 games left, 5 points behind 4th place Aston Villa (68 points), unconditionally won the remaining 2 games, including the game against Manchester City, and defeated Aston Villa. We are in a desperate situation where we have to wait for the results.
We suffered a huge power loss ahead of this important match. Tottenham coach Anger Postecoglou officially announced that Richarlison and Yves Bissouma will be out for the season through a press conference held ahead of the match against Manchester City on the 14th.
Striker Richarlison suffered an injury ahead of the match against Burnley in the 37th round and was excluded from the Brazilian national soccer team's Copa America entry.
With Richarlison's departure, Tottenham can only use Son Heung-min up front. The options have become monotonous. Tottenham used Son Heung-min as the front-line lone player, but if the situation did not go well, they would bring in Richarlison and move Son Heung-min to the left flank to find a way out. Richarlison's departure is all the more disappointing since Son Heung-min was recently assessed by local British media as being better suited to the left flank than the front line. It is also unfortunate that defensive midfielder Bissouma is missing. For Tottenham, who are facing the powerful firepower of Manchester City and the second line, the role of Bissouma, who will protect the back four more stably, was important, but it became inevitable to replace him with other resources such as Rodrigo Bentancur, who has relatively poor defensive skills. 토토사이트
