Sky Sports reporter: Spurs 'given a little nudge' by £64m player's agent to come sign him

With the Brazilian forward believed to now be wanting an escape route out of Goodison Park, Bridge believes Spurs will have been given the nudge by the player’s representatives.

He said: “It’s whether Conte wants him or not. And I think, you know, they’ve obviously been given a little nudge from Richarlison’s new advisors.”

When asked if he thinks the Brazilian would be open to a move to N17, Bridge replied: “I think he would.”
