"Talks more than he scores" - Luke Littler embroiled in heated 'social media spat' with Brentford striker Neal Maupay

Luke Littler is known to be a fierce Manchester United supporter. After his favourite club's 1-1 draw against Brentford over the weekend, the darting sensation got involved in a discussion on social media.

During the match, there was much ado about a clash between Manchester United player Scott McTominay and Brentford striker, Neal Maupay after the Scot visibly pulled the shirt of his French opponent. Maupay, one of the Premier League's most renowned wind-up merchants, uploaded a picture of the incident to his social media post-match with the caption "This fan is desperate for my shirt."

As you might expect, the post quickly went viral and was picked up by various media pages. Littler responded to one such article on Maupay's post by writing on Instagram, "Talks more than he scores."

Maupay then responded in kind, posting a video of Littler celebrating with the caption "Talk about a big fish."

By the way, Littler is absent from the German Darts Grand Prix this weekend, as he failed to qualify for this European Tour tournament. The teen star will be back in action next Thursday on Night 10 of the 2024 Premier League Darts in Manchester.
