Tottenham Hotspur star Richarlison is a prime target for Saudi Pro League clubs, as per The Telegraph.

The Brazilian striker was already on the Saudis' radar last January, but no official offers were submitted at the time. 

Al-Ittihad are believed to be the main candidate in the race for the 26-year-old who is valued at around £60 million.

Richarlison who is still recovering from a knee injury has 11 goals and three assists in 26 appearances for Spurs across all competitions this season.

His current deal at Tottenham expires in the summer of 2027.

The Saudis are ready to launch bids for other stars from the Premier League as well. 

Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah and Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne have already been linked with the SPL.
