Tottenham Hotspur have now ruled out a potential exit for Brazilian striker Richarlison amid his links with Brazilian clubs.
Richarlison has been linked with a move to Brazilian clubs Flamengo, Fluminense and Palmeiras in recent weeks. However, Tottenham Hotspur have now decided that they will not let the £60 million star leave the club.
According to a report by ESPN, multiple South American clubs are prepared to provide him with an exit route. The striker has not been able to live up to the expectations since joining Tottenham and he has struggled with injury problems as well.
Tottenham paid £60 million for him when they signed him from Everton, and they would have expected the player to establish himself as a key player for the club. Things have not worked out for the players so far, but Tottenham are prepared to give him another opportunity.
Spurs need attacking depth
Tottenham are already lacking in depth in the attacking unit. So, it is no surprise that they want to keep the Brazilian until the end of the season at the very least. Letting him leave in the January transfer window would have been a devastating blow for the club.
They signed Dominic Solanke at the start of the season, but the England international has not been able to score goals consistently. The former Bournemouth striker will need more support in the final third during the second half of the season. It will be interesting to see if Richarlison can reclaim his form in the coming weeks.
There is no doubt that the Brazilian could be a very useful player on his day, and it remains to be seen whether he can regain his form and sharpness. Richarlison is versatile enough to operate anywhere across the front three, and he is already well-settled in the Premier League. The player is now back from his injury and he could be like a new signing for Tottenham.
Tottenham will be hoping to secure Champions League qualification for next season, and they need quality players at their disposal. They will need the top players to step up and make a difference so that they can bounce back strongly during the second half of the campaign. Spurs have endured a mediocre season so far, and the players will have to step up and deliver.
