McGinn reacted to a Twitter post by the French defender which highlighted a nasty foul by St Mirren’s Greg Tansey during the 1-1 draw at Tynecastle on Saturday afternoon.

Dikamona subsequently tagged the SPFL official account in a follow-up tweet, which drew the response from McGinn.

The 28-year-old has now bit back at the Aston Villa and Scotland midfielder.

He wrote: “You’re probably the kind of player who does this, knowing you’re protected by a referee after...”

The two players’ social media spat is all the more suprising as their careers in Edinburgh didn’t overlap. Dikamona signed for Craig Levein’s side roughly a month after McGinn completed his move to Aston Villa.
