Saudi Arabia. They were offering 150m for Salah. Less than half the price for Brazil's striker?
Salah is number 1 muslim player in history (maybe zidane). What he would be worth to the saudis far outstrips richarlison. Not talking monetary.

Not really a star studded Brazil side though is it? They haven’t won the World Cup for 20 years and have only got past the quarter finals once in that time, the year Brazil hosted it which is always a big advantage. That isn’t Richarlison’s fault but the competition for his place isn’t exactly high at the moment.
Saudi Arabia.
PIF, a $600 billion fund linked to the controversial Saudi crown prince Mohammed bin Salman, will acquire a 75% stake in the four marquee clubs, with the remaining shares held by new non-profit foundations. The acquisition is part of a comprehensive government initiative described as "a bold investment and privatization project.” https://www.forbes.com/sites/samind...ur-domestic-clubs-to-grow-game-and-influence/
26 year old Brazil striker. Prime of his career. They need to overpay to attract players in their prime.
Richarlison is less than half the player and they are offering the money for the player not Egypt's top scorer. Richarlison does not have the kind of footballing reputation that Salah has. I don't think being the selected striker in a poor Brazil side will sway them that much, but maybe they don't watch the games.Saudi Arabia. They were offering 150m for Salah.

[emoji120]They paid 60m for a bloke who has played twice for Brazil and another who has been a journeyman with loans and played 14 times for Portugal.
They have more money than judgement, so maybe there is hope

Richy saying he's going to seek psychological help when he's back in England, to help him get through what he refers to as some difficult times in his personal/professional life over the last five months or so.
Honestly, props to him for admitting he needs help - it always takes a lot of courage and self-awareness. And also happy that it's becoming less taboo to admit that in football, with the recent growth in mental health breaks being given to footballers (Dele, Sancho and other recent cases in Germany and Spain).
We need him until at least January given our striker shortages, so I don't know if we can give him time off until then. But we should be wholeheartedly supporting him in seeking professional psychological advice, and come January we can assess whether it's possible/necessary to bring in a striker to give him some time off if he wants it.
This sounds exactly like a normal human reaction to being let down.
He wants to move on from that and do a good job for his team.
It’s not exactly one flew over the cuckoos nest is it, just a few tears of frustration.
Richarlison so obviously cares -- I'm pretty sure no-one's more upset about his lack of goals than he is. And he tries so damn hard. Just, like Soldado, it's not coming off and that's on his mind. Hopefully a good sports psychologist can sort him out. Maybe even a few weeks off so he can break the cycle.https://ge.globo.com/futebol/seleca...-que-so-estavam-de-olho-no-meu-dinheiro.ghtml

Soldado might have looked like he was trying hard, but what the fans see isn't always the whole story. I was told the effort he made on match days was not mirrored in his attitude to training.Richarlison so obviously cares -- I'm pretty sure no-one's more upset about his lack of goals than he is.
