The Sweden international, 26, such a key player for both club and country, has been laid low by a knee injury since May, 2025 – his last involvement was against Crystal Palace in the Premier League on 11 May, 2025.
Roberto De Zerbi has confirmed Tottenham will be without Savio and Lucas Bergvall for the clash with Coventry, but Dejan Kulusevski is set to return to the squad.
It’s the news we’ve been waiting for – Dejan Kulusevski is back in a matchday squad and set to take his place amongst the substitutes when we face Coventry City in the Premier League at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Monday night (8pm UK).
Richarlison expressed a desire to leave Spurs during the summer transfer window but a return to Everton never materialised, while a proposed switch to Vasco da Gama fell through after Deadline Day in the UK.

Tottenham Hotspur manager Roberto De Zerbi has revealed that Lucas Bergvall and Savio will miss Monday's Premier League clash with Coventry City due to injury.
Lucas picked up a knee issue in a challenge that created an early chance for Dominic Solanke in last weekend’s draw against Manchester United at Old Trafford. Savio could be out ‘for some weeks’ with a muscle problem.
