Oldham Athletic Striker Hits Woman With Chair During Ibiza Hotel Brawl

Oldham Athletic striker Kian Harratt, 23, was involved in a violent poolside brawl at the Marco Polo Hotel in Ibiza where he threw a white plastic chair that struck a woman trying to break up the fight, causing her to collapse. Witnesses described Harratt and his friends as initially bothering a group of women by splashing them and throwing rugby balls, which escalated to chair-throwing. Another chair thrown during the melee knocked a man into the pool, and the group was subsequently ejected by hotel staff. Harratt, who recently scored the winning goal in the National League play-off final for Oldham, reposted footage of the fight on his TikTok before removing it and engaged with comments about the incident. The victim required medical attention, and the incident has drawn widespread criticism, highlighting Harratt's history of disciplinary issues including a prior suspension for betting on football matches. Eyewitnesses and those involved described the group as disruptive and immature, with some defending the targeted women and condemning Harratt's behavior.
