Richarlison fires dig at Callum Wilson as Tottenham star responds to Newcastle striker's celebration jibe

Tottenham's record signing Richarlison has hit back at Callum Wilson and fellow podcast host Michail Antonio after the pair joked about his celebrations. Newcastle United's number nine and the West Ham striker recently discussed the Brazil international's unfortunate habit of being booked for celebrating goals later ruled out by VAR.

Richarlison has registered three goals and four assists since his £60 million move from Everton last summer, with the 26-year-old forced to settle for a bench role for much of the campaign. The forward has however been booked four times in the Premier League, with three of these being for removing his shirt while celebrating strikes which were subsequently chalked off.

The comments from the Footballer's Football Podcast were put to Ryan Mason, who admitted he did not like to see fellow professionals criticise one another. The reponse of the interim Tottenham boss created headlines, with Antonio and Wilson both addressing the controversy in a later episode.
