Micah Richards has opened up on what he described as ‘one of the best nights’ of his life after partying until 8am in Las Vegas.

The former Manchester City and England defender visited Las Vegas for Super Bowl and Champions League duties with CBS Sports. 

Richards, saying that he ‘likes to get in a little bit of trouble every now and again,’ revealed that he went for a wander down the strip at 1am one night – when he had media duties ten hours later. 

He said: ‘I am with (Thierry) Henry, (Kate) Abdo, the producers and everyone knows what Big Meeks is like I like to get in a little bit of trouble every now and again.

Richards reveals he told his bosses that he had a quiet night in despite being out until 8am and said he had ‘one of the best nights of my life’ 

‘I just thought ‘do I keep it professional and stay in or do I go for a little wander’?

‘So it’s about 1am in the morning, I go for a little wander down the strip. We’re staying in the Virgin Hotels. One of my old mates is staying at the Wynn. I go there and have a few drinks.

‘It’s then 4 or 5am in the morning in the morning and I am thinking to myself ‘we have got media at 11am’. What do I do here? It’s only light stuff, we’re talking about the Champions League, promoting that and then the Super Bowl.’

Richards then reveals that he went to another place, deciding not to name the venue, and described the scenery as like ‘never, ever before’.

He said: ‘And then we went to a place, I’m not naming no places but wowsers. Gary do you want me to spell it out for you, the scenery was like never, ever before. Oh my god. 

‘So bare in mind we have got to go to media in the morning. And everybody thinks I have gone to sleep. And you know Big Meeks isn’t going to sleep at that time.

‘So I get there in the morning and everyone was like ‘how was your night, this that and the other and good sleep’? And I was like ‘yeah I went to sleep really early, I couldn’t find anything to do, I went downstairs to get a drink’ and they all thought I stayed in.

‘But they don’t know I had one of the best nights of my life. Everyone thought I had a jet lag, it had nothing to do with jet lag, it was because I was out until 8am. God bless America that’s all I’m going to say.’

Hours before the start of last weekend’s Super Bowl, Richards and Henry debated who is the ‘GOAT’ of American football as they kicked balls into the fountains of the Bellagio in Las Vegas.

Richards stayed in the United States to do CBS Sports’ Champions League coverage.

On Wednesday, he joked that Kylian Mbappe had ‘more of an aura’ than his co-pundit Henry. 

The former Man City star told CBS Sports: ‘Honestly looking at him [Mbappe], his aura, he’s just… he reminds me of a young Titi [Henry]. He really does. But I think he’s got a little bit more…’

The ex-Man City star addressed Henry directly, stating: ‘Titi [Henry] I wasn’t disrespecting you by the way,’ Richards said. ‘I mean I was talking about va va voom!’

Abdo: ‘So you don’t feel like he has style? What do you mean by that?’

Richards: ‘I said he could have more. He [Henry] has got loads of style, but Kiki [Mbappe] is you know…’

The cameras then turned to Henry, who hilariously hit back at Richards, stating in response: ‘It’s because I nutmegged him… Honestly.’
