Footage emerges of another Oli McBurnie street row as Scotland star taunted and sworn at

Fresh footage has emerged of Scotland star Oli McBurnie in another street row- following a viral video of the striker allegedly involved in a violent bust up.

We told earlier today how the 24-year-old, who plays for Sheffield United, had been arrested by cops after the footage circulated on social media appearing to show McBurnie hitting a man and stamping on his phone.

North Yorkshire Police have interviewed the £20million player and held him overnight while his club have also launched a probe after the incident on High Street in Knaresborough.

Now a new video has emerged, appearing to show another row- with a man taunting the footballer on his abilities.

The Blades have struggled in the Premier League this season and are bottom of the league and facing relegation.

In the new 39-second clip, a man can be heard saying 'Oli McBurnie, see you later pal' as McBurnie walks in the other direction.

The taunts continue with the man shouting 'McBurnie you sh*t c***, see you later. Championship will do you nice mate, see you later."

He continues saying the likes of 'you're not even worth it mate, you're sh** as f***." before McBurnie tells him 'put your phone away'.

The man asks what will happen if he doesn't put it away and McBurnie appears to make a grab at it.

The previous viral footage hit the headlines across Scotland yesterday.

Police confirmed that the 21-year-old victim sustained facial injuries during the incident, which happened shortly before 8.30pm on Saturday, May 8 on High Street in Knaresborough.

The bearded 24 year old's arrest reportedly follows claims from a 21-year-old that he was assaulted by McBurnie.

The Leeds United fan had been with friends on Saturday evening in Knaresborough, North Yorkshire, when he spotted McBurnie in the street.

Footage appears to show the footballer knocking his phone to the ground and stamping on it before allegedly assaulting the fan.

It is believed the Scottish international punched his alleged victim causing facial injuries.

McBurnie was born and grew up in Leeds, Yorkshire, and plays for the Scotland team due to his Scottish parents.

He was signed by Sheffield United in 2019 after a spell at Swansea.

A spokesperson for North Yorkshire Police said: "A 24-year-old man from Knaresborough has been arrested in connection with an incident, which involved another man being assaulted.

"The 21-year-old victim sustained facial injuries during the incident, which happened shortly before 8.30pm on Saturday 8 May on High Street in Knaresborough.

"The 24-year-old arrested man remains in custody at this time.

"Anyone who witnessed the incident is asked to contact police. Dial 101, press 1 and pass information to the force control room, quoting reference number 12210115038."
