Tottenham have confirmed their squad for the Premier League season, making a decision on Richarlison, Dejan Kulusevski, and Xavi Simons, among others.

Richarlison, who made the move to Tottenham for a fee of around £60 million from Everton, has reportedly agreed to join Turkish side Trabzonspor if the two clubs can agree a fee.

The Brazilian was also close to joining Everton in the summer transfer window, but a move fell through on deadline day.

Richarlison took to social media to stress that he wanted to join Everton, which would undoubtedly not have gone down well at Tottenham.

Spurs then had a decision to make when it comes to naming their squad for the season. Premier League clubs are only allowed to list a maximum of 25 senior players over the age of 21, and there also must be eight homegrown players.

Tottenham's squad for the 2026/2027 season in the Premier League has now been confirmed, with Brazilian forward Richarlison missing from the squad.

Tottenham have also made a decision on Kulusevski, Simons, and Wilson Odobert, despite their injuries, listing them in the squad.

Spurs will, of course, have the option to add players to the squad during the January transfer window, so there could be a chance for Richarlison to rescue his career at Tottenham.

Exit now inevitable for Richarlison

An exit for Richarlison certainly feels inevitable in the coming days after his omission from Tottenham's squad.

There are a limited number of teams that Richarlison can head to, due to many transfer windows now being closed, but there could be an opportunity for him to head to Turkey.

As previously mentioned, Trabzonspor are showing an interest, but Tottenham are believed to have rejected two bids so far.

With Richarlison omitted from the squad, Tottenham's hand has been weakened, as they will clearly be desperate to get him off the books.
