The Mayor of London Sadiq Khan has slammed David Moyes and West Ham for allowing Kurt Zouma to play against Watford on Tuesday night amid accusations of animal cruelty.
A video emerged on Monday allegedly showing Zouma kicking and slapping his pet cat, with the Hammers “unreservedly condemning” the defender in a statement on the matter.
Despite that condemnation, Zouma was still included by Moyes in the starting line-up for the visit of the Hornets, which West Ham went on to win thanks to Jarrod Bowen’s deflected effort in the second-half.
