This season, in the Tottenham Hotspur side, Richarlison has come back from the ashes as if on fire, showing remarkable courage. However, a year ago, the 26-year-old Brazilian striker was almost in the depths of despair. In an interview with ESPN, he revealed that after finishing the last World Cup, it was as if his life had touched an extreme. The inner bitterness and despair made him think of giving up or even committing suicide. Fortunately, he chose to undergo psychotherapy and was revitalized in this battle of the mind.

Despite the fact that Richarlison scored three solo goals in the last World Cup with his outstanding performance, the team stopped in the last eight and his relationship with his manager was strained due to the poor results. His relationship with his manager was strained by the poor results, and he was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. It was the highlight of my career, but with it came an extreme experience," recalls Richardson. My brain was a mess, I was extremely depressed, and I almost had a nervous breakdown. I searched the Internet from time to time just to talk about death. Although I couldn't talk straight about suicidal thoughts, the idea of giving up was really strong. It was the colorful psychiatrist who saved me."

Aside from his post-World Cup loss, Richarlison joined Tottenham in the summer of 2022, but his debut season wasn't quite as good as it could have been. With just three goals in 35 appearances in all competitions, he suffered cynicism from all quarters. This season, however, he has exploded into full swing, scoring 11 goals in 26 games, making the possibility of breaking the career record for goals scored in a single season particularly appealing.
