Slavia Prague consider 'criminal complaint' against Glen Kamara
The Czech side also claim the alleged incident is in UEFA's match report
Last updated 19th Mar 2021
Slavia Prague claim they are considering a criminal complaint against Glen Kamara as they issued a fresh statement refuting racism allegations.
Steven Gerrard revealed on Thursday night that Glen Kamara said he was on the end of racist abuse by Ondrej Kudela in their Europa League defeat.
The Czech champions have once again denied this - and are now doubling down on their allegations that Kamara assaulted their player.
The statement read, "Under the patronage and in the presence of the UEFA delegation, the coaches of both teams, Ondrej Kudela and Glen Kamara met.
"After the arrival of Slavia representatives, Ondrej was physically abused by the player of Rangers FC who then fled into the locker rooms followed by the manager Steven Gerrard without a single word of apology.
"The incident is thoroughly described in the match protocol and Slavia will consider filing a criminal complaint after their return to the Czech Republic.''
Rangers manaing director Stewart Robertson says they're refusing to acknowledge the claims, and insists they are deflection tactics.
He said, "The racist abuse suffered by Glen Kamara will not be tolerated by Rangers. As a club, we stand resolutely behind Glen as we support him and his teammates.
"Several of our players have subsequently received racist, threatening and sickening abuse online. This is abhorrent and once again highlights the responsibility social media outlets have in eradicating abuse from faceless cowards.
"We refuse to acknowledge any attempt to defend, deflect or deny the abuse Glen Kamara experienced last night".
Slavia officials claim they were helped by 'local police' following the incident, however Police Scotland say they had no reports of criminality from either side at Ibrox.
