'I called him a s***!': Richarlison reveals angry text he sent to Pedro Bravo after the agent used racist 'monkey' slur when talking about Vinicius Jnr... as Tottenham forward joins Pele and Neymar in showing his support to Brazil team-mate

Richarlison sent an expletive text message to Pedro Bravo after he directed a racial slur at Real Madrid forward Vinicius Jnr for his celebration dance.

The Spurs forward revealed the message he sent the Spanish football agent after his side's 6-2 demolition of Leicester on Saturday, claiming to have called Bravo a 's***' for his racial abuse of the former Everton man's compatriot.

Bravo - who is the President of the Spanish Agents association – told Vinicius Jr to 'stop playing the monkey' after Real Madrid's 4-1 win over Mallorca on the controversial El Chiringuito TV programme before later retracting his statement.
