President claims Tottenham are willing to sell £60m player to him in January after making transfer enquiry
Tottenham could be busy in the upcoming January transfer window.
Despite Sunday’s resounding 5-0 win at Southampton, there is still room for improvement at Spurs, who have not won consecutive games in the Premier League since September, and w﷽ere on a run of five matches without victory in all competitions before hammering the Saints.
Ange Postecoglou was critical of Timo Werner last week – sparking whispers that the German loanee could return to parent side RB Leipzig in January – while a new central defender would be welcome in N17 amid persistent injuries to Micky van de Ven and Cristian✨ Romero.
However – putting Werner aside for a moment – another Tottenham forward could depart north London this winter in Richarlison.
Fluminense make Richarlison enquiry public
Mario Bittencourt – President of Fluminense – has been speaking about his desire to sign the Tottenham No.9 in January, and interestingly revealed that Spurs did not slam the do♍or in his face after the question was asked.
quote him as say🙈ing: “Tottenham responded that they are open to the offer, but that they are not currently interested in getting rid of the player, but they are willing to listen. We are also talking to the player to see if he is interested in returning. What is certain is that we have expressed formal interest in Richarlison.
“ඣWe know how difficult it will be to bring him, but we believe that he may want to be close to the Brazilian national team, to return home, to the club where he stood out. I have a close relationship with him. We have drawn up an initial document with the English club, without an offer yet, but asking if they would like to negotiate.”
The Brazil international made hi😼s name at Fluminense following a move from America Mineiro back in 2016 – scoring 19 goals in 67 appearances for the Brazilian giants before sealing a £11.5m move to Watford.
Ange Postecoglou comments on Richarlison suggests Fluminense would need to make an irresistible bid
Poste🌞coglou recently spoke qui🥀te openly about Richarlison – a♐dmitting that the South American’s inability to stay fit has been “frustrating” but he sees the “potential” in him nonetheless.
Crucially – however – the Australian stressed that attacking reinforcements are needed at Tottenham to add to the Brazilian, rather than to replace him💞, suggesting Fluminense may struggle to sign the forward.
Pos💎tecoglou said: “With Richy it has been frustrating, because I see the potential in him and, to be fair, when he’s been fit he’s always made an impact, for me anyway. I think back to the start of last year and when he cಞame back into the team during the year, he went on a scoring run.
“Even the little games he’s pla𒐪yed this ye💝ar, he’s made an impact. So, you know, that’s what you kind of hold on to, but there’s no doubt we need some bolstering in that front third over the next couple of transfer windows.”
Tottenham paid to sign Richarlison, who Newcastle admire, from Everton back in July 2022 and he still has a contract running until June 2027 – so Fluminense will surely have to make a significant bid to tempt Spurs into a salꦜe.
