The Lilywhites are preparing a bit of offensive clearance ahead of the upcoming summer transfer window, with Daniel Levy and his team ready to pass up on Timo Werner’s £8.5m buyout clause, and alongside that, they would also reassess Richarlison’s future following the conclusion of the ongoing campaign, per The Mirror.

Is Richarlison’s time at Tottenham coming to an end?

There has been a lot of speculation over whether Tottenham Hotspur will sell Richarlison, given how the Brazilian ace has been enduring a difficult time with injuries, which has been frustrating for the supporters as well as the chiefs at Hotspur Way behind the scenes.

But it has been more than just this season; his time since moving to North London has been nothing short of a disaster, given how he has struggled to find his feet and replicate his performances at Everton and Watford. At the moment, it looks like Richy will be on his way out of N17 when the off-season comes around.

Former scout backs Richarlison exit

And former Lilywhites scout Bryan King has also given his opinion, suggesting that the 27-year-old go on to say that Tottenham should be looking to find a way to sell Richarlison in the summer while citing consistency as a key factor behind his words.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with Tottenham News, King said:

“I thought it was time to get rid of Richarlison in January. I’m not sure why he was still here after discussions about him moving on in the summer. He isn’t a Tottenham player for me.

“He’s had his little spells when he has looked as though he could be effective. However, he’s never been consistent.”

There have been links…

Tottenham have already been vying to bring in a new striker when the summer transfer window opens, and if Daniel Levy is to sanction a move for a new centre forward, he will have to make space for the new arrival in the current roster, and the easiest way to do so is to sell Richarlison. And it should not be a difficult task to sell the Brazilian, given how the Saudi pro clubs have been interested in landing his signature.

There had also been ambitious links with a move back to Brazil, but it looks unlikely for a player of his potential and age.

It is to be seen where this goes, but at the moment, it looks really dim for Richy at N17, and maybe he needs a fresh environment to get his career back on track.
