Richarlison omitted from Tottenham Premier League squad as Mudryk available for Forest vs Spurs live

Tottenham Hotspur head into Saturday’s Nottingham Forest vs Spurs fixture with a clear squad picture. Roberto De Zerbi has confirmed that Richarlison is not on the club's 25-man Premier League squad list for 2026/27.

Fabrizio Romano first reported the omission, and Sky Sports News followed with De Zerbi's explanation of why the Brazil forward was left off the registered group. The decision closes the Premier League door for Richarlison unless a mid-season change is later approved.

The same press cycle delivered a second squad fact. De Zerbi said Mykhailo Mudryk is ready "to play part of the game" against Forest. The Ukrainian has not been in a matchday squad since November 2024. He trained individually through his ban, then rejoined first-team work in pre-season and played brief friendly minutes.

Forest vs Tottenham is one of the headline Premier League fixtures on Saturday. Broadcast details vary by territory, so check official league and club listings for where to watch in your country.

The Athletic reported that Spurs remain open to offers for Richarlison after the squad cut. That is a registration fact, not a forecast of any later move. De Zerbi also told Sky Sports that the club had to make hard choices after a busy summer.

The takeaway is simple. The Tottenham attack that faces Forest will not include Richarlison, and Mudryk is in the conversation for minutes. That is the squad news that shapes the match, not a predicted lineup.

Premier League action on Saturday also includes Newcastle vs Bournemouth, Manchester City vs Coventry City and Hull City vs Aston Villa. Forest vs Spurs remains the fixture most tightly tied to this registration story.
