Roberto De Zerbi responds to Richarlison after Tottenham social media jab
Roberto De Zerbi has answered Richarlison after the Tottenham player directed a social media remark at his manager. The forward has been sidelined and is with the youth team.
Roberto De Zerbi responds to Richarlison with a blunt message after the Tottenham player aimed a jab at his manager on social networks. The exchange comes before Tottenham host Conventry this Monday in the Premier League, with Richarlison already sidelined at the beginning of the season.
The Tottenham situation has now moved into public view, with De Zerbi making clear that the matter is no longer central to his plans. Richarlison has been sidelined with the youth team after being moved out of the senior picture early in the campaign.
De Zerbi gives a dry reply before Conventry match
Before Tottenham’s Premier League fixture at home to Conventry on Monday, Roberto De Zerbi addressed the situation involving Richarlison. The Italian coach’s response was brief and sharp.
Ce n'est plus mon problème
The comment, attributed to De Zerbi, underlined the distance between the manager and the player at this stage of the season. It followed Richarlison’s recent social media remark directed at his coach.
De Zerbi’s words also arrived at a sensitive point in Tottenham’s schedule, with the club preparing for league action and attention turning away from the pitch toward the relationship between manager and player.
Richarlison remains away from the senior group
Richarlison was sidelined by Roberto De Zerbi at the beginning of the season and has been training with the youth squad. That status remains central to the tension around the player’s place at Tottenham.
The Brazilian forward’s social media jab added another layer to the situation, making the disagreement more visible to supporters. De Zerbi’s answer did not soften the tone or suggest any immediate change in the player’s standing.
For Tottenham, the issue concerns a high-profile player who is not part of the senior group at the moment. For Richarlison, the situation leaves him away from the first-team environment while the manager continues to handle the matter firmly.
Tottenham focus turns to the Premier League
Tottenham’s next task is the Premier League match against Conventry this Monday. De Zerbi’s pre-match response means the Richarlison situation will remain part of the discussion around the club going into the game.
The manager has made his position clear in public, while Richarlison’s place with the youth team shows where things stand for now. Any change will depend on what happens next inside Tottenham, but ahead of Monday’s fixture, De Zerbi has offered no sign of backing away from his stance.
What happens next
Tottenham move into the Conventry match with the dispute still unresolved in public. Richarlison remains sidelined with the youth team, while De Zerbi’s latest remark leaves the focus firmly on whether the player can find a way back into the senior setup.
