Postecoglou recounts Tottenham struggles from now till January He now accepts Tottenham may struggle to reject bid of £60m for 26-year-old in January
Ange Postecoglou understands that Tottenham Hotspur would struggle to turn down a big offer for Richarlison in the January transfer window, but they want at least £60 million for the Brazilian.
That is according to a report from 90min, which notes that Postecoglou is not ready to give up on the forward just yet, despite his difficulties in North London.
Richarlison continues to struggle to silence his doubters at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. He has only managed to score five goals in 47 games in all competitions for the club.
Ange Postecoglou accepts Tottenham may decide to sell Richarlison in January
And it seems that he may get the chance to leave in the January transfer window.
90min reports that Richarlison is a target for the Saudi Pro League. And it would appear that Ange Postecoglou is not shutting the door on the attacker leaving.
According to the report, while Postecoglou is keen to keep Richarlison, he understands that the club would find it difficult to reject a large bid.
Tottenham meanwhile, would like to make back the £60 million they spent on Richarlison. So it will be interesting to see if their stance is tested during the coming weeks.
Spurs selling forward may be best for all parties
Tottenham fans have been willing Richarlison to be a success. He is the kind of player you take a shine to if he is playing for your club. But it simply has not worked out for him.
At this stage, you have to wonder if Richarlison will ever be a success at Spurs. And with that, it may make sense for all parties if Tottenham cash in if a big bid comes in.
Tottenham need to make improvements to their squad in January. And given the injury problems they are dealing with, Richarlison may perhaps be one of the only players they are open to selling and then receive a hefty bid for.
