Tottenham Hotspur has reportedly set a £60 million price tag on Brazilian forward Richarlison, who is attracting interest from Saudi Arabian club Al-Ahli.
Richarlison, a former fan favorite at Everton where he scored 53 goals in 152 appearances, played a crucial role in helping the Toffees avoid relegation in the 2021-22 season.
The versatile attacker left Everton for Spurs in a deal worth up to £60 million.
However, his performance in north London has been inconsistent, particularly in his first season, with a total of 15 goals in 66 games.
Despite having three years left on his Tottenham contract, Richarlison’s future at the club is uncertain.
The Times reports that manager Ange Postecoglou is looking to sign a new attacker this transfer window.
While Al-Ahli is interested in Richarlison, Tottenham would aim to recover the full amount they paid for him two years ago.
However, Richarlison has previously dismissed rumors of his departure from Spurs.
He stated on social media that he had cut short his vacation to prepare for the upcoming season and denied any dissatisfaction with the club.
He also refuted claims of ongoing negotiations, calling such reports “fake news” and affirming his intention to remain in England for the next season.
