REVEALED: Gareth Bale's new celebration is a nod to the Make-A-Wish foundation... but Tottenham team-mates joke that 'WM' refers to 'WELSH MAFIA' - and Lucas Moura tried to adopt a 'Just Lucas' version!

Gareth Bale has opened up on his custom celebration and revealed why team-mate Lucas Moura didn't join in with it on Sunday.

The Tottenham winger scored a fine brace in a 4-0 rout against Burnley at the weekend, marking his third goal in his last three games, and posed with his 'WM' celebration - while Brazilian forward Lucas held up an 'L' gesture instead.

Real Madrid loanee Bale's gesture is in homage to the good work done by the Make-A-Wish Foundation, but the Spurs dressing room have jokingly labelled it a 'Welsh Mafia' tribute.
