Micah Richards reveals he spent $150,000 on a night out in Los Angeles after being given a pay-rise up to £50,000 by Manchester City at the age of 19 - with Alan Shearer quipping: 'That must have been one hell of a f****** hangover!

Micah Richards has revealed he once spent $150,000 on a night out in Los Angeles after being given a mega pay-bump at Manchester City as a 19-year-old.

Richards, now a Sportsmail columnist and pundit on BBC and Sky Sports, came through the academy at Manchester City and made his debut for the first-team at the age of 17.

But as he explains to Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer on the Match of the Day Top 10 podcast, Richards admits the wealth came slightly too early as he downed tools.
