Tottenham suffer injury blow with Richarlison to miss clash against Nottingham Forest as he continues to struggle with a knee problem

Tottenham have suffered an injury blow, with Richarlison to miss Sunday's game at home to Nottingham Forest.

Richarlison has featured as a substitute in Tottenham's last three league games as part of the club's efforts to get him back to full sharpness.

However, as reported by talkSPORT, the forward will now be given time off in a bid to boost his recovery from a knee problem.

Tottenham are in fifth place in the Premier League and are two points behind fourth placed Aston Villa with a game in hand.
