Striker Richarlison says he wants to stay at Tottenham Hotspur after turning down a move to Saudi Arabia.

The Brazil forward, 27, joined Spurs from Everton in 2022 for a club-record fee of £60m.

He has scored 15 goals in 66 appearances for Tottenham and was not a regular last season under Ange Postecoglou.

Richarlison, whose contract runs until 2027, has attracted interest from a number of clubs in Saudi Arabia, with one unnamed team tabling a bid.

However he says he wants to remain in England in order to improve his chances of continuing his international career with Brazil.

“There has been an offer but my dream of playing for the Brazilian Selecao and in the Premier League speaks louder,” Richarlison told ESPN Brazil, external.

Spurs are interested in signing a striker this summer and have identified Bournemouth’s Dominic Solanke as a target.

However the Cherries are keen to keep Solanke, who scored 21 goals in 42 games for Bournemouth last season but was overlooked for England’s Euro 2024 squad.

He has a £65m release clause in his Bournemouth contract – which has three years left on it – but Tottenham value the striker at a lower price.
