Richarlison said he is confident he will deliver a much-improved second season for Tottenham, saying his poor form was due to a “turbulent time off the field” but that “the storm has passed.”
The Brazil forward, who started in his country’s 1-0 win in Peru on Tuesday, said he will work with a psychologist when he returns to England in order to “come back stronger.”

“I went through a turbulent time in the last five months off the field,” Richarlison said to Globo.
“People who only had an eye on my money walked away from me. Now things will start to flow, I’m sure I’ll get a good run at Tottenham and make things happen again … I will continue to focus on the club, the storm has passed.”
The 26-year-old has not yet scored in four Premier League appearances for Spurs this season.
He was seen crying on the bench after being replaced in Brazil’s 5-1 win over Bolívia on Sept. 8.
