The coach is to blame. Richarlison wants to leave Tottenham
Richarlison has expressed his desire to leave Tottenham, and according to sources, a move to the Saudi Pro League is a potential option for him. The striker's dissatisfaction is reportedly rooted in the decisions made by head coach Ange Postecoglou, which, according to the Brazilian, are negatively impacting his career.
Details: According to Football Insider, Richarlison has already informed those close to him about his intention to leave the club. A move to the Saudi league is considered the most likely option for his future. Local clubs are reportedly interested in securing his transfer, viewing the Brazilian as a promising addition and a way to boost the league’s prestige.

Unlike most players who move to Saudi Arabia towards the end of their careers, Richarlison, who is 27 years old, is in the prime of his professional life. Given the huge sums Saudi clubs are willing to offer, Tottenham could receive a significant transfer fee for him.
Reminder: Richarlison joined Tottenham from Everton two and a half years ago for £60 million (including bonuses). Since then, he has played in various attacking roles, but injuries and limited playing time have made his situation within the team difficult. In the current season, the Brazilian forward has played just eight matches across all competitions, with only one start.
