This must have been the greatest disrespect of all time! Is this love for SPURS or hate for Richarlison? πŸ‘€ Jamie O’Hara has went too far 😳

Richarlison has been linked with a move away this summer.

Tottenham are reportedly keen to sell him if they receive a good offer and replace him with a top class number 9.

The Brazilian striker has recently faced criticism from former Spurs player Jamie O’Hara, who voiced his concerns on talkSPORT about Richarlison’s ability to thrive under Ange Postecoglou’s system.

Richarlison, who joined Tottenham from Everton for €58 million in July 2022, has struggled to meet expectations. In his 66 appearances for the club, he has scored only 15 goals and provided eight assists, which has not matched the high hopes set for him.

His tenure at Spurs has been plagued by injuries and inconsistent form, leading to increasing calls for his departure.

O’Hara highlighted that Richarlison lacks the intelligence and awareness needed in the final third to be a key player for the Lilywhites.

Despite his ability to score, the forward’s link-up play often falters, disrupting the team’s attacking flow.

The former English midfielder hopes Postecoglou has addressed these issues with Richarlison, emphasising the need for the striker to improve if he wants to play a central role in the team.

O’Hara said:

β€œThe problem with Richarlison is he knows where the net is, but his link-up play comes off him too much.

β€œYou know, when it goes into little one-twos and around the box, he is not clever enough.

β€œAnd that, for me, he has got to work on and I am hoping Ange has gone into him and has been like, look we need to step up if you are going to play number 9 for us, if you are to be that player.”

Despite having a contract that runs until June 2027, Tottenham are open to offers for the Brazilian striker.

The club aims to bring in a new forward to bolster their attacking options and enhance their prospects for the upcoming season.

Richarlison’s future in North London remains uncertain, but the club’s intent to find a replacement suggests a potential shift in their attacking strategy.
