Saudi Arabian clubs are keen on signing Richarlison from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer.

The North London club are gearing up for an important transfer window where they could make a lot of changes to their squad. While Spurs will look to reinforce their squad by signing top-quality players, there could be a few major departures as well.

According to a report from The Athletic, there is serious interest in Richarlison’s services from the Middle East. Saudi Arabian clubs are keen on signing the Brazilian forward and they are willing to fork out a significant fee to make it happen.

Spurs had an incredible start to the season but things have fallen apart in recent weeks. They have lost each of their last four league games and qualifying for next year’s Champions League now looks beyond their reach.

Following their recent poor performances, Ange Postecoglou has already made it known that there will be changes to his squad in the summer. Tottenham are expected to make quite a few signings and more importantly, quite a few of their first-team players could be sold ahead of next season.

Richarlison who arrived at the club from Everton for a fee of £60 million has been subject to a lot of interest from Saudi Arabia. Clubs from the Middle East are keen on signing the Brazilian forward in a deal which will help Tottenham make their money back.

While Richarlison has done a decent job since making the move to Spurs and he is the only player in their team who can hold the ball up, this could be a great opportunity for Tottenham to cash in on him and reinvest the money on signing top-quality reinforcements.
