Dubai: Richarlison, the Brazilian striker, is reportedly in talks to join Shabab Al Ahli, amid a rift with Tottenham Hotspur. The English club has made it clear they will no longer feature him. As transfer windows at Tottenham close, Richarlison has found a new avenue for an exit. Nearly all European transfer windows have ended, but the UAE Pro League still has a few open.
Shabab Al-Ahli, based in Dubai and currently coached by Andre Jardine, expressed interest in signing Richarlison following contact with his representatives a few weeks ago. Richarlison, who was a star in Brazil's 2020 Tokyo Olympics winning squad, scoring a hat trick in their opening game, could reunite with his former coach, potentially strengthening the speculation of his move.
Meanwhile, his current manager at Tottenham, Roberto De Zerbi, confirmed Richarlison will not play for the club even if available. De Zerbi had asked the player to stay with Spurs multiple times but claims the forward has decided to leave. Richarlison's earlier attempts to move to Turkish side Trabzonspor and Brazil's Vasco da Gama were unsuccessful.
He now has one more chance to leave Tottenham before the transfer window closes in the UAE Pro League on September 28, providing Shabab Al-Ahli with ample time to pursue their target.
