Tottenham are prepared to take a “big loss” on the £50million fee paid for Richarlison as they are open to his departure this month.

Talk about the latest edition of Soccer Insider’s Inside Track Podcast, Former Spurs goalkeeper Paul Robinson, who remains well-connected at the club, insisted the money from his departure could be reinvested into a new signing this month.

This comes after Soccer Insider Exclusively revealed the 27-year-old has told friends he wants to leave the club this month amid prolonged interest from the Saudi Pro League.

As a result, Tottenham have turned their attention to signing a new striker before the window closes on February 3.

If Richarlison is now allowed to leave, there is a feeling he must replace to maintain strength in depth in Ange Postecoglou’s squad.

PSG striker Randal Kolo Muani had been heavily linked with a move to Juventus after the French giants made him available.

Former Spurs scout Mick Brown told Soccer Insider This Tottenham are open to offers for Richarlison and is no longer part of their long-term plans.

Now Robinson has reiterated those claims but warned the club against letting him go before the transfer deadline as he could still play an important role for the rest of the season.

“Maybe they are linked with so many other forwards because they want to let Richarlison go,He told Soccer Insider.

“I think they’re obviously going to have to take a massive loss on the £50m they paid for him because they’re not getting that money back.

“But the money they earn could go back into the team.

“I would like to see him stay. I like what he does and I like what he brings with his attitude and application.

“His versatility has probably cost him in terms of rotation because it’s easy to take him in and out.

“There is no reason for them to let him go and you can see what plays for any club he plays for funds for him.
