Journalist speculates 25-year-old Brazilian could be Harry Kane’s replacement

By Saikat -

Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has been linked with a move away from the club at the end of the season.

The 29-year-old has a contract with the Premier League club until the summer of 2024 and Tottenham could be under pressure to cash in on him if he does not sign an extension with them.

Kane has been linked with a number of clubs in recent months and it remains to be seen whether he is prepared to move on and join a club capable of winning major trophies.

The England international is at the peak of his career and he will be hoping to play for a team capable of winning trophies. While Tottenham have improved under Antonio Conte, they are still a long way away from challenging for the Premier League and the Champions league.

Furthermore, the departure of Antonio Conte could have a big impact on his future. The Italian will be a free agent in the summer.

Journalist Ryan Taylor has now revealed to Give Me Sport that Tottenham might have already signed the replacement for Kane in Richarlison.

“Richarlison is not a winger. He plays in the centre, as we saw with Brazil.

“I say this speculatively but you do wonder whether Richarlison was a player signed with the mindset that they couldn’t guarantee Kane will stay long-term.”

Spurs signed the Brazilian forecast of around £60 million during the summer transfer window but the 25-year-old has not been able to live up to the expectations so far. The Brazilian international is yet to score a single goal in the Premier League for Tottenham and he has scored just twice across all competitions.

On the other hand, Kane has been one of the most prolific goal scorers in the world over a number of seasons.

Replacing him with Richarlison could prove to be a major downgrade and it remains to be seen how the situation develops.

If the 29-year-old ends up leaving Tottenham, they should look to bring in a proven goalscorer.
