Fabrizio Romano debunks the recent rumors of Richarlison’s potential move to Juventus, stating that there is nothing ongoing between the Brazilian and the Italian giants.
The reliable journalist spoke with Caughtoffside and emphasized that despite some rumors in the Italian press, there is no truth to them as of now.
Romano added that it is unlikely for Richarlison to join Juventus since Tottenham Hotspur spent a considerable amount of money on the player.
He also mentioned that it’s crucial to know who will be the Spurs coach next season to understand more about Richarlison’s future with the club.
He said:
“Despite some rumours in the Italian press, my understanding is that there is absolutely nothing between Juventus and Richarlison as of now,”
“Spurs spent big money for him, I think it’s very unlikely deal with Juventus and nothing is ongoing right now.
“It’s important to understand who will be the Spurs coach next season to understand more on Richarlison.”
The Brazilian forward’s recent public outburst against Antonio Conte and his lack of playing time could suggest that he is not entirely happy with Spurs.
Antonio Conte responded back to the Brazilian’s comments labeling him as selfish and suggesting that he is right about his season being ‘sh***’.
However, with Conte likely to leave in the summer and Harry Kane’s future at the club uncertain, next season could be an opportunity for Richarlison to showcase his true quality.
Richarlison joined Tottenham from Everton in the summer for a record fee of £60 million, making him the most expensive signing in the club’s history. However, he has not had the best of seasons, only scoring two goals and assisting 4 all season.
Despite the recent rumors, it seems like Richarlison will remain at Spurs for the time being. However, with the summer transfer window approaching, anything can happen, and fans will be eagerly waiting to see what the future holds for the talented Brazilian.
