Tottenham striker Richarlison has been linked with a move away this summer, with reports claiming that the club are open to selling him for the right offer.

And while initially the Brazilian dismissed the rumours, insisting that he will be at Spurs next season, it appears that he has had a change of heart.

Richarlison has now expressed interest in moving to the Saudi Pro League, indicating a possible departure from the Lilywhites this summer.

That is according to the latest from HITC, who claim that Spurs are ready to approve the sale of the Brazilian centre-forward, aiming to recoup the £60 million paid to Everton in 2022.

The report claims that the striker has confirmed his interest in moving to Saudi Arabia to the Saudi Pro League, who will now step up their interest in the coming weeks.

Despite his decent form last season, with 11 goals and 4 assists in 28 Premier League appearances, his overall performance at Spurs has been inconsistent.

Since joining Tottenham, Richarlison has scored 15 goals and provided 8 assists in 66 appearances across all competitions over two seasons. His impact has not fully met the high expectations placed upon him upon his arrival. (Transfermarkt)

With a contract extending until June 2027, Tottenham view the sale of Richarlison as an opportunity to fund the signing of his replacement striker during the ongoing transfer window.

The club are keen on bolstering their attack and are planning to sign a top class striker to fill the void left by Harry Kane.

The Lilywhites are expected to welcome bids that match their initial investment in Richarlison.
