Gabby Agbonlahor has insisted Richarlison must "wake up" or risk being sold by Tottenham in the coming transfer windows.

The former Aston Villa striker, speaking exclusively to Football Insider, claimed the 25-year-old has no "standout attributes" within his game at present.

Heung-min Son has been benched in Tottenham's last two Premier League games - London derby wins against West Ham and Chelsea - with Richarlison taking his place in the lineup.

However, the Brazillian has flattered to deceive and is yet to break his top-flight duck in a Spurs shirt.

Richarlison cost a reported £60million last summer (2022) but has played a bit-part role in Antonio Conte's side so far.

Tottenham sit fourth in the Premier League ahead of their next top-flight clash against Wolves on Saturday (4 March).

Agbonlahor told Football Insider’s Ewan Kingsbury: “I would stick with the winning team for now.

“Son has had an impact off the bench in the last two games.

“But Richarlison has got to wake up.

“He wasn’t great against West Ham or Chelsea – and that’s been a theme of his season.

“When you watch him, you struggle to see what he’s good at. He’s got no standout attributes.

“He’s not quick, he’s not a great finisher, he can’t hold the ball up, he can’t pass that well.

“I feel that he could be someone that Spurs look to move on. He’s not showing himself to be good enough for where they want to go.”
