Richarlison, who had been left out of Tottenham's first team since expressing a desire to leave over the summer, made an unexpected appearance in an EFL Trophy match against Cheltenham on Tuesday. Despite primarily using the game for fitness and match sharpness ahead of January transfer window reopening, Richarlison impressed with his effort and scored the equalizing goal. He celebrated by posing for photos after the match and took to Instagram to express how much he had missed playing. Cheltenham manager Steve Cotterill praised Richarlison's attitude, calling it a pleasant surprise to see him on the teamsheet. The appearance marked Richarlison’s return to action after nearly two months of being frozen out by Tottenham, who were unable to facilitate his transfer during the summer window.
