“Fake”: The Tottenham player denies rumors of a transfer regarding his future.
Using social media, Richarlison has refuted rumors that Tottenham has made him an offer to Newcastle United in exchange for Alexander Isak in a player-plus-cash deal.
Richarlison has taken to social media to dismiss suggestions that Tottenham have offered him to Newcastle United as a part of a player plus cash deal to sign Alexander Isak.
Richarlison was linked with move to Newcastle United
Isak continues to be mooted as a target for Spurs, with various outlets indicating that the North London club would even be prepared to shatter their transfer record to bring the centre-forward to the club this summer (Football Insider).
On Wednesday, Gianluca Di Marzio asserted that Newcastle are desperate to raise funds before the end of the month to ensure they do not fall four of PSR and are said to be willing to listen to offers for the Swede.
The journalist suggested that the Magpies had received several bids for their star striker, one of which came from Spurs, who had allegedly offered cash plus Richarlison in exchange for the 24-year-old.
This is not the first time Richarlison has denied a transfer rumour since tRhe end of the Premier League campaign after he poured cold water on speculation of a switch to Saudi Arabia in May.
Various sources had suggested that the former Everton man is on the radar of several Saudi clubs, including Saudi Pro League champions Al-Hilal, who are thought to be keen on securing his services this summer (The Daily Mail).
Spurs Web Opinion
This is not the first time that Richarlison has publicly dismissed a transfer rumour linking him with a move away from Tottenham.
It is pretty clear that the striker wants to and expects to stay at the club next season.

Jacob Ramsey transfer truth as Johan Lange leads Tottenham pursuit of Aston Villa star
The Aston Villa midfielder is attracting interest from Tottenham this summer
Jacob Ramsey is courting interest from Tottenham this summer with Aston Villa’s reluctance to sell the midfielder unlikely to deter Johan Lange.
Villa’s former sporting director is believed to be driving Tottenham’s interest in Ramsey, which was first known back in January. The 23-year-old has three years left on his contract and is settled at his boyhood club.
Villa faced losing a key player before June 30 this summer due to their position regarding Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR), and decided to sell Douglas Luiz to Juventus for €50m. Monchi prepared for the Brazilian’s exit 18 months ago with forward planning being a big part of the club’s recruitment strategy considering the strain caused by PSR. It allowed Villa to bring in Youri Tielemans on a free transfer last year and agree a £5m deal to sign Ross Barkley this summer before losing Luiz.
READ TO; Unai Emery reveals Villa’s ‘biggest challenge’ and Real Union dream
Villa signed Morgan Rogers from Middlesbrough back in January for an initial fee of just £8m and he has already made excellent progress under Unai Emery. He didn’t expect to play so many minutes so early in his Villa career, but went on to make 11 Premier League appearances last term due to Ramsey’s injury problems.
Ramsey only started eight league games last season and was ruled out for the rest of the campaign following an injury picked up in the 3-2 win over Luton Town. He was showing signs of rediscovering his form and confidence before coming off for Rogers at Kenilworth Road.
However, now that Villa have eased their PSR issues, only a huge bid for Ramsey would tempt the club into a sale. Of course, every player has their price, but Ramsey remains a vital part of Emery’s squad, despite his injury troubles last term.
Our sister title football.london have reported that a bid of around £50m could yet prise him away from his hometown club.
“Teams maybe involved in the possibility to sign him, because he has big potential with Aston Villa and England, 100 per cent.”
