Matt Law of The Telegraph believes that Tottenham Hotspur star Richarlison could move to Saudi Arabia next year.
Richarlison has been in good form recently, scoring five goals in his last five Premier League appearances.
The 26-year-old may not have had the best start to the campaign, but he is back in great form after surgery on his groin injury.
The Tottenham star was the subject of interest from Saudi Arabia in the summer and the interest hasn’t disappeared.
In fact, before the January transfer deadline, it was reported that Al Hilal was a target, as the Saudi club wants to replace the injured Neymar.
But after a recent upturn in form, Matt Law does not expect him to move this month. Nevertheless, he admitted that he would not be surprised if Richarlison heads to the Saudi professional league “in the next 12 months”.
Richarlison could sign a contract with a Saudi club within a year:
On Last Word is Spurs, a reporter was asked about Richarlison’s future.
“At the end of last summer’s transfer window, there was some interest from Saudi Arabia,” Law said. “I don’t think a concrete offer was made because I think it was too late to do anything.
“Saudi Arabia was specifically interested. That remained and I can see Richarlison moving to Saudi Arabia at some point.
“If you had asked me two months ago, I would have said I might have seen this for January. But the kind of story and narrative around Richy, as you say he’s scored a few goals, he seems to be in a better position personally, I would be quite surprised now.
“Although if Saudi Arabia came up with some silly offer, the Spurs would have to consider it. I don’t have the feeling that some stupid offer will come.
