Surely Richarlson isn’t in serious contention for a game?
Course not, as much as I think he should be now, that would be madness given the public spat

I would take it, but it would make the club look utterly ridiculous and undermine a situation which has gone on for weeks.Even if its our only realistic chance of progressing (i.e. scoring a goal)?

He can't pick him even if he wanted to. You need to be registered to the club in some form to be eligible for the Cups and Richy isn't.I would take it, but it would make the club look utterly ridiculous and undermine a situation which has gone on for weeks.
Just read this in the StandardHe can't pick him even if he wanted to. You need to be registered to the club in some form to be eligible for the Cups and Richy isn't.
Player eligibility for the EFL Cup is determined by Rule 6.2, which dictates that an eligible player must be registered and qualified to participate in a simultaneous Premier League or league matchJust read this in the Standard
“It leaves Richarlison facing more than three months on the sidelines, but he is eligible to play in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday evening due to it being an English Football League competition, rather than a Premier League match.”
And a Google AI answer as to whether he can play :
Carabao Cup Eligibility
- The Carabao Cup is run by the English Football League (EFL), not the Premier League.
- Premier League squad registration rules do not apply to EFL competitions.
- He remains a contracted player at Tottenham, making him legally available to feature in domestic cup fixtures unless specifically cup-tied or restricted by separate tournament rules.
Seems to be tow different storiesPlayer eligibility for the EFL Cup is determined by Rule 6.2, which dictates that an eligible player must be registered and qualified to participate in a simultaneous Premier League or league match
. The FA Cup similarly requires valid and continuous registration through the Football Association or the club's participating league under its specific competition rules. For further details, consult the EFL Cup Rules Handbook. [1, 2, 3]

Thought someone said he was, just not in the PL squad?Richy isn't eligible.
Nah. It will only be a 3-0 then. I suspect we'll lose by more if we actually play the game.If Spurs don’t show up until Wednesday the result will be even worse than usual
He can play. We haven't sold him, and he's not loaned out. He's not registered for play in the Premier league, but that's it. This isn't the premier league. De Zerbi not wanting to play him is another matter.He can't pick him even if he wanted to. You need to be registered to the club in some form to be eligible for the Cups and Richy isn't.
