Tottenham could receive £26m bid for star with 31 appearances and 8 goals this season

2 hours ago 29

A Tottenham Hotspur star, who is currently out injured, is already attracting plenty of interest ahead of the summer transfer window.

The January window was quiet in terms of first-team incomings and outgoings for Tottenham Hotspur, but one would expect that to change in the summer.

Reports indicate that Spurs are planning to invest ambitiously in the summer, which suggests that there could be a significant rebuild taking place in N17 at the end of the season.

A Tottenham star, who has made 31 appearances so far this term, will enter the final year of his deal in June, and is already becoming a topic of discussion at some clubs.

Brazilian giants eyeing move for Tottenham forward Richarlison

According to a report in ESPN Brazil, Flamengo are plotting a summer move for Richarlison, who is Tottenham’s top scorer this season with eight strikes in 31 appearances.

The report says that former Chelsea defender Filipe Luis, who is currently the manager of Flamengo, is a big fan of the Spurs striker.

Luis feels Richarlison ticks all the right boxes he wants in a centre-forward, and Flamengo are ready to invest €30m (£26m) to take the striker back to Brazil.

The report suggests that the former Everton man’s situation may gain real traction after the World Cup.

Richarlison would be open to Spurs exit

ESPN Brazil say that for now, Flamengo are in an information gathering phase, and they suggest that the Tottenham man is ‘open-minded’ about his future, including a return to his home country.

The report makes it clear that the Brazilian club are not the only one eyeing the 28-year-old, who is also on the radar of several other clubs abroad.

This follows a report from two weeks ago, which claimed that Tottenham and Richarlison have agreed to go their separate ways at the end of this season.

That update suggested that Spurs are expected to demand around €25m (£21.7m) for his services.
