ExWHUemployee rubbishes reports on West Ham ace Kurt Zouma
Rumours that West Ham defender Kurt Zouma’s cat incident took place during his Chelsea days are untrue, claims ExWHUemployee.
The reliable Hammers insider claimed that he checked with his sources inside the club and it has, in fact, taken place during his time at the London Stadium.
With the Irons set to face Leicester on Sunday (February 13), the Frenchman is understood to be available for selection.
Ex wrote, “Despite rumours on Twitter and Facebook that the Zouma cat incident happened whilst he was a Chelsea player, this is not true.
“I didn’t want to comment before checking this out with senior sources in the club and in the media but having spoken to a number of people the rumour has been denied.”
Not ending soon?
Zouma-gate appears to be going on longer than we would have expected.
The Hammers decided to fine him two weeks’ wages but have chosen against suspending him.
This has not been viewed as a popular decision and we do not know where this will go in the future.
There is an investigation ongoing about the incident so based on that the club could change their stance.
He is undoubtedly the club’s best central defender so David Moyes will continue to use him until he’s told that he cannot pick him.
