Not on my part but on the part of people who were close to me. I&#8217;m going to go back to England to seek psychological help from a psychologist, to work on my mind.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I went through a turbulent time in the last five months off the field. People who only had an eye on my money walked away from me. Now things are right at home. Now things will start to flow, I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll get a good run at Tottenham and make things happen again. I&#8217;ll come back stronger.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/13\/20\/75400483-12515303-image-a-75_1694635029217.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Richarlison plans to seek support for his mental wellbeing upon his return to England<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/13\/20\/75400481-12515303-image-a-76_1694635036361.jpg\" height=\"357\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The forward was seen in tears after being substituted during Brazil&#8217;s 5-1 victory over Bolivia<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/13\/20\/75400487-12515303-image-a-77_1694635040801.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The Brazil player has attributed his unsettled feelings with months of off-field turbulence<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It&#8217;s about getting a good streak at Tottenham.

In 2021, two other agents opened legal action in Brazil, demanding unpaid earnings from the footballer, relating to five years from 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He&#8217;s going to turn things around,&#8217; said a source in Brazil. &#8216;Now, we need to give him time and peace of mind.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Richarlison does not want to stop playing but will rather try to train his focus on his football and get away from the off-field disruption, including social media where he has been a target for abuse because of recent performances, especially for Brazil.<\/p>\n<p>Spurs will provide any support he needs. They have no dedicated sports psychologist on the backroom staff but have experts to work with individuals when required. Some players prefer to work closely their own psychologists or life-coaches on these sorts of matters. Others prefer to work with club staff.<\/p>\n<p>Richarlison, 26, has been under scrutiny for his lack of goals. He has scored only four goals in 40 appearances in all competitions since his \u00a360million transfer from Everton, in the summer of 2022.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/13\/20\/75400493-12515303-image-a-78_1694635067123.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The 26-year-old has been targeted by Brazil fans on social media over his recent performances<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/13\/20\/75400531-12515303-image-a-79_1694635072284.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Richarlison isn&#8217;t seeking to take a break from playing and will look to rediscover his goalscoring form with Tottenham on Saturday<\/p>\n<p>His first season at Tottenham was made difficult by injuries and his role in the team, often coming on as a substitute or playing in different positions from one game to the next.<\/p>\n<p>He has retained his place as Brazil&#8217;s first choice centre forward and has an impressive record of 20 goals in 45 games for his country, but none since the World Cup, where he started the tournament with a brilliant volleyed goal against Serbia and ended injured.<\/p>\n<p>Ange Postecoglou turned to Richarlison to lead the line for Spurs when Harry Kane left for Bayern Munich last month and the Brazilian has scored once, in a Carabao Cup tie at Fulham.
