Richarlison says there's two reasons why he's failed to perform at Tottenham so far
Richarlison has spoken about why his summer transfer to Tottenham has not worked out as planned so far this season.
The Brazil number nine hit the headlines for outspoken comments about Antonio Conte following last nightās Champions League exit.
Spurs went out 1-0 on aggregate to AC Milan last night, failing to really threaten the Italian champions until stoppage time.
The Evening Standard carry other quotes from Richarlison where he shares the reasons his time at Spurs has not gone to plan thus far.
Richarlison on why he has not performed for Tottenham so far
He said: āWe have around 15 games to play now and the focus is that.
āIāll try to score as many goals as I can because the club has paid a lot of money for me and I havenāt given enough back on the pitch yet.
āFair to say my injuries didnāt help and I havenāt had enough minutes. But now Iāll go home, rest, train tomorrow and see if heāll put me in the first XI next game.ā
Richarlison has not maybe had as many chances as he would like to impress but he has still had opportunities to improve on a tally of 0 Premier League goals.
Perhaps he focused on getting fit for the World Cup with Brazil and his performances either side of the mid-season tournament have been impacted.
Conteās tactics do not help either, and with Harry Kaneās future up in the air, maybe he still start next season as first choice striker for Spurs.
