Tottenham Hotspur, now managed by Thomas Frank, are reportedly open to parting ways with Richarlison this summer. The Brazilian forward could be allowed to leave either on loan or through a permanent transfer, as the club looks to reshape its attacking options ahead of the new season.
As earlier reported by Softfootball, Richarlison could be on his way out of North London this summer, with Galatasaray emerging as a serious contender for his signature.
The Brazilian is prepared to restart his career abroad after new Spurs manager Thomas Frank approved his potential exit, having deemed the 27-year-old surplus to tactical requirements.
Frank, who replaced former Spurs’ manager Ange Postecoglou, has since been making moves to bring in players which suits his playing philosophy, one of whom is Bryan Mbeumo, who is strongly linked to Manchester United.
Richarlison joined Tottenham from Everton in 2022 for a hefty £50 million fee but has struggled to justify the price tag. In two injury-riddled seasons at the club, the former Fluminense star has managed just 20 goals and 10 assists in 90 appearances.
His inconsistent form under former manager Ange Postecoglou, coupled with persistent fitness issues, has seen him fall down the pecking order. With Frank ushering in a new era at Spurs, Richarlison appears to be surplus to requirements.
Talks of a potential return to Everton were quickly dismissed by manager David Moyes, despite the departure of striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who is now a free transfer target for Manchester United.
Softfootball earlier reported that Galatasaray could turn to Tottenham’s Richarlison as they prepare for life after Victor Osimhen, who may leave Napoli this summer. The Brazilian forward now has a fresh opportunity to revive his top-level career, with the Turkish giants eyeing him as a potential replacement amid growing uncertainty surrounding Osimhen’s future.
