Tottenham star has decided on his next move after “fight” with agent

Tottenham Hotspur appear ready to cut their losses on Richarlison, with the Brazilian striker poised for a summer departure after failing to justify his £60 million price tag since arriving from Everton.

The 26-year-old’s turbulent spell in North London has been marred by inconsistent performances and persistent injury concerns, prompting Spurs to entertain offers for the misfiring forward as they plan their summer rebuild.

South American outlets report growing interest from Brazilian giants Palmeiras, Flamengo, and Fluminense, but a more lucrative solution may emerge from the Middle East.

Richarlison’s financial motivations have come into sharp focus following revelations about his bitter dispute with former agent Renato Velasco.

According to journalist Jorge Nicola, the striker allegedly lost approximately £1.5 million (10 million reais) in a messy separation, with Velasco reportedly having access to his bank accounts before their professional relationship soured.

This financial blow has apparently influenced Richarlison’s thinking, making the astronomical wages of the Saudi Pro League increasingly appealing as he seeks to recoup his losses.

While the Seleção international remains theoretically capable of contributing to elite European sides, his stock has fallen considerably after managing just 11 Premier League goals across two seasons.

Once considered the heir to Harry Kane’s throne at Tottenham, Richarlison now faces a career crossroads – pursue one last major European challenge or secure his financial future in Saudi Arabia while still in his prime.

Tottenham’s willingness to sanction his departure reflects their recognition that the partnership hasn’t worked.

For Richarlison, the coming months represent more than just a club transfer – they offer a chance to reset both his sporting trajectory and personal finances after a turbulent period that has seen him fall short of expectations on multiple fronts.

Whether he chooses the prestige of Brazil’s top clubs or the financial security of Saudi Arabia, this summer will likely define the next chapter of a career that once promised so much more.
