Richarlison has reportedly decided against leaving Tottenham Hotspur in the summer transfer window after the North London club set a €40 million price tag on him.
According to a report by Brazilian outlet UOL Esporte, Serie A club and Saudi Pro League outfits have been keen on signing Richarlison in the summer transfer window. Tottenham Hotspur had no qualms about parting ways with the Brazilian international if suitors forked out €40 million. However, a summer departure will not see the light of day.
The former Everton talisman has decided against leaving the North London club in the summer transfer window, as he views a bright future for himself in the 2025/26 season. The player has regained his spot in his national squad, and he hopes to be in Carlo Ancelotti’s list of call-ups for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Richarlison and his Tottenham travails
Richarlison has endured a topsy-turvy ride since joining Tottenham Hotspur from Everton in July 2022. While the 28-year-old was among the best players in the Premier League when he moved to the North London club, he failed to stamp his authority apart from a few flashes of brilliance in his first three seasons at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The Brazilian international struggles for game time last term. However, he has earned Thomas Frank’s trust and repaid the faith by scoring a match-winning brace in Tottenham’s 2025/26 Premier League season-opening game against Burnley last weekend. The latest report has revealed the player’s stance on his long-term future at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
What next?
Recent reports suggested Richarlison was ready to part ways with Tottenham Hotspur in the summer transfer window. Meanwhile, the North London outfit had no qualms about selling the then-underperforming attacker, as he was not a pivotal figure in his first three seasons at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
While Tottenham once actively worked on the player’s departure and slapped a price tag worth €40 million on him, a summer exit will not come to fruition. The former Everton attacker has decided against leaving the Premier League club, and he believes a successful campaign with the 2024/25 UEFA Europa League winners will help him become a regular for Brazil.
The 28-year-old Brazilian international has already won Carlo Ancelotti over and regained his spot in his national squad. So, while Serie A clubs and Saudi Pro League outfits were keen on signing the former Everton talisman, the €40 million-rated attacker will not leave Tottenham in the ongoing transfer window.
