Many Everton fans have been left buzzing as an update emerged involving Richarlison.

They have asked FIFA to enforce rules preventing eight Brazilian players from five teams in the top flight from playing this weekend, which will also affect the UEFA Champions League fixtures next week.

This marks an increase in tensions between Brazil and those sides who blocked their players from travelling to the country due to concerns over restrictions due to the global pandemic.

Among the clubs most affected are Liverpool, who are now set to be without Alisson, Fabinho or Roberto Firmino against Leeds United, while Rafa Benitez’s team are unaffected due to ‘good relations’ with the federation – Richarlison did his part by playing in both the Copa America and Olympic Games.
