West Ham defender Kurt Zouma could be prosecuted by RSPCA after sickening cat abuse

West Ham defender Kurt Zouma could be prosecuted by Animal Welfare organisation the RSPCA after videos emerged of him kicking a cat.

The disturbing footage was filmed by Zouma’s brother Yoan last month, while the Hammers star has already been fined two weeks wages by his club, though he was never taken out of the side as punishment. Earlier on Thursday, Yoan – who currently plays for Dagenham & Redbridge – was charged by the RSPCA.

Kurt was dropped by a number of his sponsors including Sportswear giants Adidas. The West Ham defender has been regularly mocked by opposition supporters since the video was uploaded to Snapchat in February, with some fans bringing in inflatable cat toys to poke fan at the Frenchman.
