Tottenham star Richarlison is heading for the exit doors at N17 in the coming weeks
Tottenham striker Richarlison has just failed to get going during his three-year stay at N17. The Brazil international was one of the most promising players in the Premier League during his time at Everton. He was scoring goals for fun and stepping up during clutch moments. Looking at that potential, the Lilywhites landed him at Hotspur Way in 2022 in a high-profile deal.
But it is fair to say that the 28-year-old has not showcased the same form during his time in North London. The striker has failed to make the ‘number nine’ position his own under various managers. Numerous injuries have also disrupted Richarlison’s game, and the Brazilian also fell down the pecking order under Ange Postecoglou last season.
Tottenham star Richarlison is linked with a move to Galatasaray in the summer.

Now, the 28-year-old has the chance to make a fresh start under a new manager yet again. The ex-Everton star is facing an uncertain future at the club and might move to pastures new in the summer. Troy Deeney, Richarlison’s ex-teammate, recently came out and urged clubs to stay away from the 28-year-old in the summer, suggesting that the Spurs No.9 has lost his way in football since his high-profile switch to N17 in 2022.
Tottenham star Richarlison might be heading to Galatasaray
Tottenham star Richarlison is looking to rejuvenate his career and get it back on track next season. The Brazil international managed to come in handy during the latter parts of the campaign last season. But it is fair to suggest that the time has come for the Lilywhites to cash-in on the 28-year-old and bring in a quality replacement for next season instead.
It was reported earlier that Galatasaray were showing interest in signing Richarlison in the summer. The Turkish giants need a new striker after Alvaro Morata sealed a move away from the club earlier last month. The aforementioned report also stated that Everton and some of the Saudi teams were interested in signing the prolific striker in the coming weeks as well.
However, Galatasaray have come out on top by the looks of it. As per reliable journalist Jorge Nicola, the Turkish giants are now ready to make an offer for Richarlison in an attempt to lure him to Rams Park. Galatasaray are also said to be frontrunners for the 28-year-old’s signature, and it is believed that the Brazilian is open to move to Turkey for next season. The chance to play Champions League football is one of the reasons why the Spurs No.9 is willing to move abroad.
It remains to be seen how the transfer saga involving Richarlison evolves as time goes on. The ex-Everton star is aiming to compete at the highest level as he looks to cement his place in the national team for the World Cup squad next year. He could be useful under Thomas Frank at N17 as well, if he stays fit and is available for crucial games.

The forward provides a different dynamic up front as compared to Dominic Solanke, and Thomas Frank also tends to play with two strikers up top against certain oppositions. Linking up with Solanke and playing as a second-striker in the starting eleven might benefit Richarlison in more ways than one. He would get the game-time that he is craving and the 28-year-old would also play at the highest level possible against elite teams.
