Tottenham No2 Stellini eases Richarlison injury concerns

Tottenham assistant manager Cristian Stellini played down the absence of Richarlison for their FA Cup win at Preston.

Harry Kane was also missing for the 3-0 triumph.

Stellini said of Richarlison: "He has a small problem in the last few days. We tried to recover him but it was not a good idea to recover him. We had just Harry Kane sick and so it was not a good idea to risk him. We will find Richarlison next week.

Asked if it was his hamstring, Stellini added: "No, no, no, it was a different injury.

"He recovered well, he has a small problem in his adductor but nothing special."
