Tottenham Hotspur’s season has gone from bad to worse in recent weeks as Ange Postecoglou’s position at the club comes under immense scrutiny.

After their recent 4-2 defeat against Chel🍸sea, Spurs fell to 11th in the Premier League table and are seven points adrift of 🐈the UEFA Champions League spots.

The Lilywhites have had some torrid luck in terms of injuries, with key players like Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, Son Heung-min and Richarlison facing extended spells on t✨he sidelines in recent weeks.

The latter has been linked with a transfer aboard, with reports suggesting several 🔜clubs in the Saudi Pro League are vying for his signature.

And Richarlison’s transfer stance has emerged as he continues to endure a tough season at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Tottenham forward Richarlison shuts the door on Saudi transfer

Postecoglou recently backed Richarlison but admitted his injury problems are becoming a cause for concern and he indicated that January reinforcements could be on the c🍷ards.

And now, Ed♔uardo Borges of Diario AS has confirmed that several clubs from the Saudi Pro League have asked ab🌃out his situation ahead of the January transfer window.

Richarl🎶ison, however, has no plans of leaving Tottenham, having definitively shut the door on a move to the Middle East.

It has also been reported that the Brazilian is focused on overcoming his issue to r🎃eturn to the national team fray as he aims to play a s🐻tarring role for his country at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Richarlison’s stats this season

Richarlison has 🍬featured just seven times in all competitions for Tottenham this season, scoring once in the 1-0 win against AZ Alkmaar in the UEFA Europa League.

With Son also struggling with injuries this season, the Brazilian’s unavailability has turne⛄d out to be a massive loss for Postecoglou as Spurs have lacked firepower up top.

Richarlison is unlikeꦍly to play for Tottenham in 2024 as his hamstring injury is worse than expected, but Tottenham are unlikely to rush him back♒ as they aim to give him all the time he needs to put his problems behind him.
