Tottenham striker Richarlison was included in Tite's 26-man Brazil World Cup squad alongside Neymar, Vinicius Junior and Arsenal duo Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli.
The Brazilian striker signed for Spurs from Everton after completing a £60million transfer to N17, but has been hampered by injuries after a strong start under Antonio Conte. Richarlison missed six games for the Lilywhites after suffering a calf injury in October before returning to the matchday squad for the Carabao Cup defeat to Nottingham Forest before featuring in the dramatic 4-3 win over Leeds before the World Cup break.
The 25-year-old has registered five goal contributions in 15 appearances across all competitions for Spurs and has impressed since breaking into the Brazil senior setup back in 2018. Richarlison looks set to start ahead of Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus for Tite, having scored 17 goals in 38 appearances for his country as Brazil head into the tournament as favourites.

Ahead of the tournament in Qatar, Tite's squad posed for a photoshoot, including fellow Premier League Brazilian stars Jesus, Martinelli, Fabinho, Alisson, Ederson, Fabinho, Casemiro, Bruno Guimaraes, Lucas Paqueta, Thiago Silva, Antony and Fred. Before the photoshoot began, Richarlison looked to pick on one Manchester United star who was sat in Neymar's position for the photo.
The Spurs striker saw Fred sat where the Paris Saint-Germain superstar was set to sit for the photoshoot and wasn't having any of it. Richarlison walked over behind Guimaraes, who was greeting the United midfielder and Alisson, before picking Fred up from his seat and ushering him further along the bench to place alongside Raphinha and former United teammate Alex Telles.
