Slavia Prague are embroiled in yet another race row after their assistant manager was accused of using the same ‘monkey’ slur aimed at Glen Kamara.
The incident comes just eight months after Ondrej Kudela was banned by UEFA for racially abusing Kamara at Ibrox.
Rangers' Europa League tie with Slavia last season descend into mayhem after Kudela shouted at the Finnish international during the game.
Ibrox chiefs made an official complaint that Kamara was labelled a 'f***ing monkey' by the veteran Czech stopper.
UEFA later found him guilty of racist abuse and banned him for ten matches causing him to miss Euro 2020.
He’s currently awaiting a final decision after taking his second appeal to the Swiss-based Court of Arbitration for Sport.
The bad blood continued this season with Rangers facing Slavia's great city rivals Sparta Prague in the same tournament and Kamara was booed by up to 10,000 kids in the stadium, although UEFA took no action on the matter.
It even reached diplomatic levels with the UK ambassador, Nick Archer, summoned to meet Czech Foreign Minister Jakub Kulhanek amid demands for apologies.
However, Slavia No.2 Pavel Rehak is now at the centre of a huge storm after a powderkeg league clash with Viktoria Plzen, where the visitors were reduced to eight men.
One of the three players sent off was Colombian Jhon Mosquera who posted a picture of the Slavia assistant manager on social media and stated: "This stupid man called me a monkey.
"I hope I don't meet him alone on the street, because I would smash his face.”
And his club backed him up in a statement. They said: "The club stands firmly behind its player, whom we fully trust and has our maximum support.
"We therefore ask the home club to thoroughly investigate the entire incident and, if necessary, to severely punish the specific culprit.
"We consider Slavia's behaviour absolutely undignified. The worst moment came when Jhon Mosquera went to the stand and listened to swearing not only from the crowd, but unfortunately also from the Slavia coaching staff.
"According to him, one of them even insulted him racially, which our player pointed out immediately after the match in the dressing and subsequently on social networks.”
Slavia have so far refused to comment on the incident. Rangers face Sparta Prague later this month at Ibrox in a Europa League Group Stage tie, which is certain to be a fiery encounter after home fans - made up of supervised kids after UEFA relaxed a stadium ban - jeered Kamara.
