Tottenham are aiming to add quality to their squad, and this could mean some senior players are moved on to make space for new additions.
Richarlison could be one of those sold this summer after an underwhelming three years in North London, and the Brazil star has been linked with several clubs.
Tottenham have been linked with several forwards, including Bryan Mbeumo, but will need to sell to boost their finances if they are to sign a big-name attacker.
Everton have been touted as a possible destination for Richarlison, but a surprise club has now emerged as an interested party.
Vasco De Gama interested in Richarlison
While a return to Everton has been touted, Richarlison could end up leaving the Premier League to return to his native Brazil, with one club now heavily interested.
MORE SPURS STORIES
TalkSPORT (July 8) have now reported that Vasco De Gama are keen on signing Richarlison, but with one key caveat.
Richarlison would have to lower his £175,000 a week wage demands if he is to make a shock return to Brazil to join Vasco De Gama.
If the 28-year-old does make the move, he would link up with former Liverpool and Barcelona star Philippe Coutinho, who recently moved there after leaving Aston Villa.
Richarlison could leave Spurs
Richarlison’s time at Spurs has been underwhelming, and he could fall further down the pecking order if they recruit in attacking areas.
It remains to be seen whether Thomas Frank wants to give him another chance after years of instability welcomed the attacker to Spurs.
The Brazilian could be a useful asset as a squad player, but given his wages and the potential fee Tottenham could earn from his sale, they may be willing to listen to offers.
The likeliest scenario is that Richarlison leaves Spurs, as with two years remaining on his contract, his value will never be higher, and the club may not wish to keep a depreciating asset on the bench.
Richarlison scored 20 goals in 90 games for Tottenham, who will now hope to sign an attacker who can offer more reliability in the box, and more consistent fitness.
