Tottenham supporters are ready for Richarlison to be shipped out this summer after criticising the striker’s performance against Arsenal.
With both Premier League clubs jetting out to Singapore as part of their pre-season tours, the sides met at the Kai Tak Sports Park on Thursday, 31 July, with Thomas Frank‘s side leaving victorious.
Despite plenty of action throughout the 90 minutes, the teams were only separated by a single goal from midfielder Pape Matar Sarr, but what an absolutely outrageous effort it was from the Senegalese.
David Raya was helpless as Myles Lewis-Skelly was dispossessed on the halfway line, leaving the 22-year-old to try his luck from range and send the supporters wild on the stroke of half-time.
Things should have been even better for the Lilywhites over in Singapore, having squandered plenty of chances against their North London rivals, but their exit-linked striker missed an incredible opportunity.
Richarlison has been heavily linked with Palmeiras, as well as an emotional return to Everton, yet very little movement has emerged over transfers this summer after the arrival of Mohammed Kudus.

His Brazilian teammate, on the other hand, is under considerable pressure from supporters, especially with Dominic Solanke injured, but he was in the spotlight for completely different reasons.

Following a set-piece routine, Richarlison found himself open at the back post, unmarked by the Gunners, but the 28-year-old was unable to force home his shot due to an awkward woodwork deflection.
Almost immediately, supporters streamed onto social media to voice their discontent, and while some have come to terms with the forward’s inabilities, most were still shocked by the player’s miss.
The player was told by one fan to “pack your bags now”, while another simply wrote: “Just get rid of him,” and those comments could have been even worse had Mikel Arteta‘s side found a late equaliser.
