Aston Villa has inquired about Richarlison, a 29-year-old Brazilian forward from Tottenham. According to manager Roberto De Zerbi, Richarlison has asked to leave the club. Everton is also in discussions with Spurs regarding a potential return for the player, but neither club has submitted a formal offer. Tottenham is seeking a fee of approximately £30 million, though there is an internal belief that an offer of that size is unlikely. The manager has stated that any player who wants to leave must bring a financial solution to the club.

The Brazilian international has 54 caps and 20 goals for his country. He joined Tottenham from Everton in July 2022 for a reported fee of €58 million, and his contract is valid until 2027. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €25.00m.
