Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly willing to cash in on Richarlison in order to sign a direct replacement from another Premier League club.
There were times during the 2023-24 campaign when Spurs looked an attractive attacking unit under Ange Postecoglou, who was in his first season in charge.
However, a poor end to the season would see the North Londoners finish with the seventh-best offensive record, as well as possessing the joint-seventh best defensive record.
As a result, Postecoglou is keen to make a number of changes at both ends of the pitch in order to try to secure Spurs a return to the Champions League.
Priority may be placed on adding strength in depth to the backline, yet there is expected to be movement in terms of outings in the final third.

Richarlison likely to be sold
Richarlison enjoyed an improved second year at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, scoring 11 goals in the Premier League, but he contributed in just two matches from February onwards.
The Brazil international now faces the prospect of being sold, even though Spurs are unlikely to generate anywhere close to the £60m that they shelled out in 2022.
Nevertheless, having secured Europa League football, Spurs already have extra money to use in their pursuit of a new frontman, as well as whatever they can recoup for Richarlison.
According to talkSPORT, Spurs are contemplating whether to make an approach for Bournemouth forward Dominic Solanke.
In what was the Cherries' best-ever campaign in the Premier League, Solanke would also enjoy his most productive season, scoring 19 goals in the top flight.

Bournemouth to consider offers for Solanke?
While the 26-year-old is undoubtedly Bournemouth's best player, the South Coast outfit will consider cashing in if they receive a suitable offer.
What that figure would need to be is currently unclear, but Solanke possessing a contract until 2027 leaves Bournemouth in a strong position.
Spurs did not bring in a like-for-like alternative for Harry Kane last summer and Solanke would help fill that void if he were to move to the capital.
