Tottenham's Richarlison turns down Saudi offer

Richarlison, Tottenham's forward, has turned down an offer to join the Saudi Pro League.

The Brazil international has been linked with a transfer to Saudi Arabia in recent months after an injury-hit two years at Spurs.

Al Hilal were reportedly ready to bid for Richarlison, but the 27-year-old has revealed his desire is to stay in England and work towards winning back his place in the Brazil national team.

"There has been an offer," Richarlison told ESPN Brasil.

"But my dream of playing for the Brazilian Selecao (national team) and in the Premier League speaks louder.

"The money is big but my dreams are bigger."
