Michael Dawson has called on Antonio Conte to manage Richarlison just like Pep Guardiola used to do with Gabriel Jesus at Man City. Adding to his attack back in January with Dejan Kulusevski joining from Juventus, Tottenham now have Richarlison as a further option up front after signing him from Everton for £60million.
A move that some fans questioned given the attacking options already at the head coach's disposal, Spurs have followed in the footsteps of Man City and Liverpool by strengthening a position of strength. Game time will be there for Richarlison over the course of the season but he is not expected to start week in, week out as was the case for him at Goodison Park.
With Conte having a selection headache on his hands at Tottenham this campaign, Dawson has opened up on the importance of the Italian managing his new signing as the minutes he wants may not always be there for him. Pointing to the example of Jesus during his time at Man City, the former Spurs defender is confident that Richarlison can come in for a period of games and have a big impact in the final third.
