Tottenham forward Richarlison says he will “seek psychological help” after being seen in tears following his substitution during Brazil’s 5-1 win over Bolivia last Saturday.

The 26-year-old says he his emotional reaction in the match was a release to help ‘get things happening off the pitch out of his system’.

"I went through a turbulent time off the pitch during these past five months," he told Brazilian newspaper O Globo who reported that Richarlison has split with long-term agent Renato Velasco.

"Now things are a bit more stable at home. People who only had their eye on my money are no longer close to me.”
