The two had to be separated after their encounter during the Ballers League UK show on Monday night. The 29-year-old is taking part in the inaugural competition - a six-a-side tournament broadcast live on Sky Sports - with footballing heroes such as Luis Figo, Gary Lineker and Wright himself among the big-name managers. ‌ Harrop played a key part in FC Rule The World's 4-3 win over Wright's Wembley Warriors, which was their first of the campaign, to move above Monday night's opponents.

"Matchday five let's chat about it, finally got the W, the boys got three points," Harrop began in a TikTok video. "But the Ian Wright situation, let's just address it, all game me and him are just going back and forth. ‌ Content cannot be displayed without consent "He's giving me a load, I'm giving him a load, and their coaching are shouting a load of mad stuff on to the pitch; 'Empty him, nail him' - and all kinds of mad stuff. "So I'm playing the game a bit, every time I get kicked, I'm going to the floor, and getting wound up. That's what it was, after the game, he's come over, said a few words, few things to me which weren't the nicest, things got a bit heated and that is what it is - there's nothing else to it. ‌ "I respect the guy, he's had a great football career, a legend so I've got nothing against him I think we'll just leave that one there. It's all apart of the game, and there's nothing bad about it. I just wanted to address it so everyone knows what went on. "Just said a few impolite things, I wasn't happy, things got a bit heated. But at the end of the day, got the W, got MVP of the night, scored two goals, I'm a happy man and so it's on to next Monday so that's it, that's how we go, we move forward." It isn't the first time that the ex-United academy graduate has been involved in a flashpoint since the tournament began. ‌ Josh Harrop (left) in action at Baller League (Image: PA ) Earlier this month, Harrop was shown a straight red card after a late foul on Sak Hassan, as they trailed 3-2 to John Terry's 26ers, which sparked a chaotic brawl. The Chelsea legend was on commentary for the following game - and his annoyance was made further clear as he blasted the reckless challenge from Harrop. ‌ Harrop made his only United appearance during their 2-0 win over Crystal Palace, at the end of the 2016/17 season, as he provided an assist for Paul Pogba on the final day. His last club was Cheltenham Town, but he has been a free agent since his release at the end of last season. Get United transfer news and updates on WhatsApp!
