Problems for Frank! Richarlison out for extended period due to injury

The match against Aston Villa turned out to be a disaster for Tottenham in every sense.

Details: Today, Tottenham head coach Thomas Frank announced that the team's 28-year-old Brazilian forward Richarlison will be sidelined for about two months due to a hamstring injury.

Richarlison sustained the injury during the FA Cup Round of 64 clash against Aston Villa and was substituted in the 31st minute of the first half. To make matters worse, Tottenham not only lost Richarlison but also crashed out of the tournament, as the match ended 2-1 in favor of Aston Villa.
