Seething Slavia chief claims Rangers fans deserve UEFA warning after Lyon bus vandalism as he blasts back at Glen Kamara's lawyer

Slavia Prague president Jaroslav Tvrdik has hit back at Rangers star Glen Kamara's lawyer after he claimed Ibrox fans would be targeted in the Czech Republic in the Europa League clash later this month.

And he insists UEFA should issue a warning about RANGERS fans instead, after he posted a screenshot of Lyon's vandalised bus in Glasgow last week.

Rangers travel to face Slavia's city rivals Sparta Prague in their next Group A match that will be played behind closed doors due to the Czech club being punished for racist behaviour in their match against Monaco last month.

Last season, Rangers lost out to Slavia in a last-32 clash that exploded after a clash between Kamara and Slavia defender Ondrej Kudela who was later banned for ten games by UEFA for racist abuse, which caused him to miss Euro 2020.

Kamara's lawyer, Aamer Anwar, claimed Rangers fans would be targeted by Ultras from both Prague clubs and faced a "genuine risk to life" if they travelled to the Czech Republic for the game.

But that's outraged Slavia president Tvrdik, who responded on social media by posting a picture of Lyon's team bus, which was spray-painted when in Scotland for the clash against Rangers at Ibrox.

He added: "The lawyer here has shown an absolute loss of justice or is this an example of Scottish culture?

"UEFA really should issue a warning... about the fans of Rangers.”

Kudela has taken his appeal against the ban to the highest court in sport - the Swiss-based Court of Arbitration for Sport and is expecting to hear a final outcome this month.
