Brazil have confirmed that Richarlison is out for their upcoming game against Morocco.

The striker suffered an injury in the warm-up for Tottenham against Southampton on Saturday.

He appeared to suffer the knock pregame, started the game, and then came off in tears.

The Brazilian football federation (CBF) stated: "Defender Marquinhos and striker Richarlison are out of the Brazilian squad.

"Still recovering from an injury to his abdominal muscles, the Paris Saint-Germain defender will not be available for the next friendly against Morocco, on March 25, in the opposing country.

"The number nine of Tottenham had to be replaced in a game valid for the Premier League on Saturday morning, against Southampton and left the pitch crying.

"The team's doctor, Rodrigo Lasmar, made contact with Richarlison's club and found that the athlete is unable to play for the friendly. Coach Ramon Menezes is studying the call-up of two athletes to make up for the absences."
