Ange Postecoglou already has a number of injuries to his Tottenham players to deal with, and now striker, Richarlison, has demanded a transfer.

The Brazilian has scored 16 goals in his Spurs career and provided five assists (WhoScored) over his three seasons at the club.

Richarlison demanding Tottenham transfer

Despite interest in his services, it was originally thought that Richarlison wasn’t interested in a move, however, Football Insider now report that the striker has told friends that he wants to quit the North London outfit.

Moreover, he wants a move to the Saudi Pro League, where it’s believed he could earn himself a very lucrative deal.

It’s understood that there has been interest from the SPL before, although at this stage there is no confirmed bid forthcoming.

With the likes of Dominic Solanke, Brennan Johnson and Son Heung-min all dovetailing well in Tottenham’s attack at present, there’s little chance of Richarlison forcing his way back into the starting XI.

Even Timo Werner, when fit, could be considered to be ahead of him in the pecking order.

The only question mark to any deal being successful is whether Spurs’ transfer fee becomes problematic.

Spurs could let injury-prone Richarlison leave

It can’t be forgotten that Richarlison has become somewhat injury prone with transfermarkt noting that since signing for the North Londoners, the Brazilian has had three separate hamstring injuries, two knee injuries, a calf injury, an unknown injury and groin surgery.
