Richarlison may have already played his final match for the club as Ange Postecoglou plans a summer overhaul of his squad.

The Brazilian is not expected to play again this season due to a calf injury.

He was left out of Brazil’s squad for the Copa America as a result of the setback.

According to the Daily Mail, Richarlison could secure a move away from North London this summer.

Al-Hilal are planning a move after previously making enquiries in January following Neymar’s season-ending knee injury.

They are yet to make a formal approach, though, but are confident a deal can be completed, the report adds.

Richarlison’s calf injury follows knee and groin issues earlier this season which have caused him to miss almost two months of the campaign already.

The 27-year-old is now unlikely to feature in Spurs’ final three matches this term.
