Tottenham boss Postecoglou proud of Richarlison for going public with mental health problems

The full extent of Richarlison’s problems became clear earlier this week following an interview with ESPN where he broke down in tears. ― Reuters picLONDON, March 30 — Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou has praised Richarlison for going public with his mental health issues.

Postecoglou, speaking ahead of Spurs’ Premier League game at home to Luton today, was full of admiration for Richarlison’s readiness to share the details of his condition in a bid to help other people.“I haven’t spoken to Richy but Richy’s really benefited from the support that does exist. Not just for him but for others in the community. Because he’s benefitted so directly, he’s taken on the responsibility of trying to share that around.

Meanwhile, Postecoglou said Spurs could block any move by World Cup-winner Cristian Romero to represent Argentina at the Olympic football tournament, which runs from July 24-August 10, after the 25-year-old expressed his desire to feature at the Paris Games during the recent international break. “From that perspective, we have a little bit more of a say in it than other internationals. Certainly from our behalf as a club, we’ll always be looking at making sure there is a balance there.
