A FOOTBALLER was caught on video appearing to hurl a chair at a Brit tourist during a pool brawl at an Ibiza hotel.
Oldham Athletic forward Kian Harratt, 23, has been identified as the yob who seemed to launch one of several chairs during the hotel clash.
Brit holidaymaker Kyle Crawford told The Sun Oldham Athletic forward Kian Harratt and three of his pals were “being horrible” to a group of women before the clash on June 21.
And two videos show the brawl, including one which appears to show thestriker – wearing black shorts & with his distinctive goatee – launch a chair at one of them.
The Sun has approached Oldham Athletic for comment but have not had a response as of publication.
Sunseeker Kyle, who was also on holiday with a group of mates in Ibiza, Spain, said: “There was four lads, we didn’t know who they were, being horrible to some women.”
Shocking footage shows the violent poolside brawl, with one female tourist being clobbered in the head by a flying chair – while another man is knocked into the pool.
Kyle didn’t recognise 23-year-old EFL star Harratt at the time of the altercation – but confirmed his identity after watching the footage back.
And a second source who was caught up in the brawl, told us: “It was Kian Harratt. He was bothering these girls.”
Kyle said Harratt and his friends were “throwing little rugby balls” at the female tourists inside the pool, one of which being the woman that was struck by a chair later on.
“They were just in the pool splashing them and throwing balls at them – being proper immature,” he explained.
Kyle said he and his mate stepped in to stand up for the women.
“Me and my mates stuck up for them and then in the end, they’d come to attack my mate,” he said.
Kyle alleged that there was an altercation and his mate was punched first during the ruckus.
He said Brandon hit back, and the whole confrontation “calmed down” for a bit.
But shortly after, the player and his pals started hurling chairs towards Kyle and his mates, with one of the women who was initially being disturbed getting caught in the crossfire.
“They start throwing chairs – they threw a chair at a woman,” he said.
Viral footage appeared to show Harratt – who made headlines just weeks ago after scoring the winning goal in the National League Play Off final – chucking the white chair and striking a woman in a black bikini.
And a second clip moments after the initial throw, shows another man hurling a second chair which knocking the other men into the pool.
“That’s when they threw the chair and it hits me, and I go into the pool.”
Kyle added that he asked the group: “What you doing? Why are you hitting women?”
The Brit tourist explained: “We just stuck up for her, the lads were just being idiots, immature.
“This video doesn’t do us justice for actually being gentlemen and looking after these women.”
He detailed that after the altercation, the men “all got kicked out”, while Kyle says he and his mates were praised by staff for standing up to them.
