Everton forward Richarlison is set to travel with the Brazil squad this week, despite his injury at the weekend, according to Paul Joyce.

Richarlison was forced off the pitch in the club’s 0-0 draw with Chelsea on Sunday.
The Brazilian forward went down in the last five minutes of the game and requested to come off after feeling pain in his ankle.
Richarlison has been excellent for Everton this season since his move to the club from Watford in the summer.
He has scored six Premier League goals so far this season and has worked his way into the Brazil national team.
There was concern that he may be out for a number of weeks, but it now seems as though he will play for Brazil before returning to Everton.
The 21-year-old cost Everton a reported £35m after scoring five goals in 38 appearances for Watford in the Premier League last season.
