Exclusive: Tottenham are now expecting 'world class' £60m player to leave after transfer talks held
Another player headed for the exit ????
Tottenham Hotspur’s summer transfer window has not exactly gotten off to a flying start nearly two months in.
The focus from Tottenham has been on player sales with the Lilywhites having already waved goodbye to eight players.
And there could still be more to following with talks ongoing over Emerson Royal’s potential move to AC Milan over the coming days.
Even more recently, it seems Alejo Veliz is set to depart Tottenham on loan for Espanyol for the 2024/24 campaign.
Ange Postecoglou and Daniel Levy have been fairly ruthless in their clearing of the decks in north London.
TBR Football understands Richarlison and his agent have held positive talks with the Saudi Pro League, they like the terms on offer and are willing to do it.
Tottenham now expecting Richarlison to leave this summer
The Spurs asking price is an issue, like with Manchester United and Casemiro, Newcastle and Almiron – the Pro League are not handing out huge deals unless it is a player that warrants it and they thought Diaby does as he had a great season after Aston Villa paid £50m.
TBR understands from sources, that Tottenham believe Richarlison will have left the club by the end of August.
Spurs signed Richarlison just two years ago from Everton in a deal worth £60m and they will be keen to recoup the large majority of that fee.

With Harry Kane leaving the club last summer, Richarlison was handed the perfect opportunity to showcase his ability.
Although he enjoyed a ‘world class‘ spell over the winter where he returned nine goals in 10 Premier League games, the Brazilian’s injury issues have been a real concern.
Struggling to stay fit, Richarlison is yet to play a single minute of pre-season action this summer.
Tottenham eyeing move for Dominic Solanke
Now less than two weeks away from the start of the season, it is clear there is one main objective for Spurs in the summer transfer market.
Postecoglou wants Tottenham to bring in a new striker and he would like one with Premier League experience.
Dominic Solanke is the name being strongly linked to Tottenham currently but Spurs have their options.
One thing they do not have a lot of is time with the transfer deadline just a matter of weeks away, but there is still time to see some players leave the club.
