Arsenal, Spurs encouraged to bid for Man City defender Richards

Manchester City defender Micah Richards is considering his future at Eastlands.

The Daily Mail says Richards' British-based advisers have alerted a number of Barclays Premier League clubs to the player's potential availability at the end of the season.

Tottenham remain keen on a £15million move for the City star ahead of next season, though with right back Kyle Walker set to return from his loan spell at Aston Villa, Harry Redknapp may feel the money could be used to strengthen other areas.

City are yet to hold discussions with Richards over a new contract, though it is understood Roberto Mancini is keen on extending the player's existing deal that expires in 2013.

Arsenal were also linked with Richards on the weekend.
