Tottenham Hotspur forward Richarlison was reportedly subject of late interest from the Saudi Pro League, with Al-Ittihad making a move for the forward on deadline day in the Middle East.<\/p>\n
This comes after the Saudi Pro League side were chasing a deal for Mohamed Salah and saw a \u00a3150million bid rejected by Liverpool for their star man.<\/p>\n
Senior Saudi executives were in London for talks with Liverpool and were prepared to pay a world-record fee for Salah, but the Reds held firm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Therefore, they turned to alternative targets on deadline day on Thursday.<\/p>\n
The Telegraph report that Tottenham striker Richarlison was subject of late interest from Al-Ittihad.<\/p>\n

Richarlison was reportedly subject of late interest from Saudi Pro League side Al-Ittihad\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This comes after the Saudi Pro League side were chasing a deal for Mohamed Salah<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Talks over a move are believed to have taken place through intermediaries on deadline day<\/p>\n
When it became clear that they would not get Salah, the Saudi side looked for alternatives, the report states.<\/p>\n
One of these was Spurs’ Richarlison, who has had a miserable time since making the move to Tottenham from Everton last year.<\/p>\n
The forward was pictured in tears after being substituted in Brazil’s win over Bolivia on Friday night.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Talks over a move are believed to have taken place through intermediaries.<\/p>\n
However, the move didn’t happen as all parties simply ‘ran out of time and did not progress before the 10pm deadline’.<\/p>\n
It remains to be seen as to whether sides in the Saudi Pro League could return for Richarlison when the window re-opens in the winter.<\/p>\n
It is likely that Al-Ittihad will be back in for Salah after missing out on the Liverpool forward, with Richarlison seen as an alternative.\u00a0<\/p>\n
