Richarlison Posts Cryptic 'Villain' Message as He Nears Everton Return

Richarlison’s post came as Tottenham and Everton reportedly advanced a deadline-day swap deal that could send Iliman Ndiaye to Spurs.

  • An agreement has been reached for 29-year-old Richarlison to return to Everton from Tottenham before the transfer deadline on Tuesday. The Brazilian forward originally joined Spurs from Merseyside four years ago.
  • Manager Roberto Zerbi explained the absences of Richarlison, Kevin Danso, and Pape Matar Sarr, saying, "He said too many times he wants to leave." Danso requested a transfer two days ago.
  • Following his squad exclusion, Richarlison posted on Instagram, "I am the villain of many poorly told stories." Teammate Xavi Simons was among the 40,000 people who liked the cryptic message.
  • Everton attacker Iliman Ndiaye is expected to complete a move to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as part of the swap. Both deals remain subject to personal terms and medicals, with optimism they will proceed.
  • After two consecutive Premier League defeats, Zerbi apologized to fans and discouraged "panic," insisting, "I know where we are going and what the plan is." He emphasized rebuilding team connections.
