Chris Kirkland has issued an update on his social media surrounding comments he made on BBC Breakfast over Kurt Zouma being filmed kicking and punching a cat at his home.
The former Liverpool, Wigan Athletic and Preston North End goalkeeper suggested that Zouma's actions were "worse than" racism while berating the decision from West Ham to play the French defender on Tuesday night, reports the Mirror.
Speaking to the BBC, Kirkland said: "Everywhere they go now and everywhere he [Zouma] goes, he's going to be targeted and rightfully so as well because he deserves everything he's going to get.
