Tottenham expert issues ‘massive’ Richarlison transfer claim after what he’s seen
Tottenham star Richarlison’s transfer value has skyrocketed after his performances for Brazil at the Qatar World Cup.
That is according to Spurs expert John Wenham, who regularly breaks news about the club on his Lilywhite Rose social media channels.
Richarlison, 25, scored three goals in Qatar before Brazil were dumped out of the competition on penalties by Croatia on Friday (9 December).
The attacker has struggled to repeat his form for Brazil while playing for Spurs after joining the club in the summer of 2022.
However, Wenham is backing Richarlison to continue his newfound goalscoring prowess when he returns to North London.
“Richarlison has been performing at the absolute highest level, representing a country that is fanatical about football,” Wenham told Football Insider correspondent Ben Wild.
“He was scoring goals that the Brazilian Ronaldo would be proud of. He really has gone from strength to strength in that Brazil shirt.
“His value has already increased massively. It has probably increased at Tottenham anyway because he is now a player who has performed in the Champions League.
“But you look at those performances and what would you even value him at now? He has been the main man at this World Cup for Brazil ahead of Neymar, which is remarkable.
“Richarlison is riding such a wave at the moment and I can’t want to see him score these goals for Tottenham.
“There is no reason why he can’t come back to us and keep this form going.”
Richarlison has scored twice for Spurs in 15 total appearances this season.
Both goals came in the same game against Marseille in the Champions League.
