Richarlison transfer concern emerges at Tottenham after latest developments
Richarlison has failed to live up to expectations at Tottenham, and the North London club’s frustrations with the Brazilian could escalate this summer.
Richarlison’s time in North London has been a disappointment.
The striker has failed to justify his price tag since arriving from Everton and has struggled to even get on the pitch this season, thanks to constant injury setbacks.
As a result, the forward has been linked with a move away from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this summer. However, an exit might not be so straightforward.
Richarlison could have limited options to leave Tottenham
Tottenham are reportedly looking to sell Richarlison and are keen to recoup around £30million for the striker [The Boy Hotspur].
The 28-year-old has been widely linked with a return to Everton. However, David Moyes recently denied these rumours.

In addition, Richarlison has also been linked with a return to Brazil.
However, Lilywhite Rose owner John Wenham – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – has ruled that out, and has expressed concern over what will happen next with Richarlison.
“We’ve heard previously from Richarlison that he wants to remain in Europe,” Wenham said.
“Therefore, I’m not sure a move to Saudi Arabia or Brazil is on the cards. He might move back to Brazil later in his career, but not while he is still in his 20s. I don’t see that getting off the ground.
“I thought Everton would be a perfect destination. However, Moyes seemingly ruled that out recently, which was disappointing. Therefore, I do now worry about what options will be available to Richarlison, that the player and Tottenham will be happy with.”
Tottenham should part ways with Richarlison
With the clubs for Richarlison to choose from growing smaller by the day, the future is looking pretty bleak for the Brazilian.
However, Tottenham should still look to depart with the striker at the earliest opportunity, even if this means convincing him of a move abroad.
The former Everton star has played only 22 matches this season, one of the lowest tallies from any of the first-team players, and now, with a final on the horizon and potential UEFA Champions League football next season, Tottenham should look to invest in a new, brighter future.
