“Tottenham poised to cut ties with £50m star after another disappointing season”
“Tottenham may offload £50m star after yet another frustrating season”
Richarlison’s spell at Tottenham has been far from straightforward, with recurring injuries once again hampering his season. As doubts grow over his long-term future at the club, a summer departure seems increasingly possible.
Brought in during the summer of 2022 after shining at Everton, Richarlison was meant to bolster Spurs’ attack. However, his time in north London has largely failed to live up to expectations.
Despite joining with great promise, the Brazilian forward has struggled to make his mark, featuring just 80 times in three seasons. Persistent fitness problems and inconsistency have stalled his progress, leaving Spurs fans increasingly frustrated.
This season has been no different, with injuries keeping him off the pitch more often than on it. Having made just 14 appearances, he has missed an astonishing 34 matches, adding to the growing uncertainty surrounding his future at the club.
Richarlison’s injury struggles have been a major setback this season, keeping him out for extended periods and limiting his impact on the pitch.
Since the start of the 2024/25 campaign, he has suffered four separate injuries, missing a total of 34 matches. A hamstring injury sidelined him for 73 days, costing him 17 games, while an unknown issue earlier in the season kept him out for 54 days, making him miss 9 matches. More recently, a calf injury ruled him out for 32 days, adding another 7 games to his absence.
With such persistent fitness concerns, doubts over his long-term future at Tottenham continue to grow.
Tottenham Weighing Up Richarlison Sale This Summer
With persistent injury struggles, a significant price tag, and just two years left on his contract, Tottenham could be open to offloading Richarlison this summer, according to Football.London.
While no official bids have been made, there is reported interest from Saudi Arabian clubs—an avenue Spurs explored last summer. Newcastle United have also been loosely linked, though any potential move remains speculative for now.
As Tottenham aim to strengthen their squad and reshape their attacking options, selling Richarlison could generate crucial funds to reinvest in the transfer market.
What’s Next for Richarlison and Spurs?
For now, Richarlison remains a Tottenham player, with no final decision made on his future. The Brazilian forward has reportedly returned to training after his latest injury setback and could be in contention to feature against AZ Alkmaar.
With Spurs aiming for a strong finish to an inconsistent season, the 27-year-old still has a chance to change the narrative around his time at the club. A strong run of form could extend his stay, but whether Tottenham still view him as part of their long-term plans remains uncertain.
