Tottenham sets Richarlison's asking price amid interest from Arab clubs
By Manuel Meza
The week begins with new updates regarding Tottenham's transfer window. This time, The Times reports the price that the Spurs' management is allegedly demanding to finally sell Richarlison this summer. Previous reports place Richarlison in the crosshairs of several clubs in Saudi Arabia.
According to GiveMeSport, both Al-Ittihad and Al-Qadsiah are interested in the Brazilian forward, but the Arab media outlet Ariyadhiah also adds Al-Ahli as another admirer of the Tottenham goal scorer.
According to The Times, Tottenham hopes to receive £60 million for the Brazilian forward to sell him this summer, a figure that coincides with what GiveMeSport reported the Arab clubs are willing to pay for Richarlison.
However, it is evident that Richarlison's value has decreased, at least in the past year. If he indeed gets sold to the Saudi league, the possibility of selling him for £60 million is a real and feasible option for the North London club.

If the player decides to continue his career in Europe, it will be very difficult to obtain that amount of money for him, considering that his market value has decreased. In fact, according to the Transfermarkt portal, Richarlison's current value is only €38 million, which is around £32 million, practically half of what Tottenham desires to receive for their forward.
Overall, Tottenham's transfer window is moving slowly. Our job is to cover all the latest news about the club, and in that effort, we publish rumors every day. However, in practice, we have hardly seen any moves from the Spurs.
Why do we mention this? It makes sense that Tottenham is waiting to complete a major sale before making a significant offer for one of their market targets. The sale of Richarlison, in this case, could unlock a couple of signings. We'll see.
