Kian Harratt: Man who knocked woman out with chair in Ibiza brawl is pro footballer

Oldham Athletic footballer Kian Harratt has been identified as the man who threw a chair at a woman during a wild Ibiza poolside brawl.

The 23-year-old League Two striker is seen throwing the item in the direction of a middle-aged woman, who was trying to break up a brawl between two groups of holidaymakers.

After being hit, the woman collapses to the ground holding her face as Harratt leaves the view of the camera - with the footage going viral on social media.

Another chair was also thrown which resulted in another person falling into the pool. Brandon Watkins from Nuneaton, who was one of the lads confronted by Harratt's group at the Marco Polo Hotel in San Antonio, described the encounter in a post on Facebook.

He wrote: "Five lads came to our hotel being nobs around the pool splashing people throwing balls at women and one lad says 'what are you looking at' so he approaches me and I drop him. "

"They then start throwing chairs because they couldn't fight and everyone knows how slippy it is round a pool so stopping chairs hitting us I slip in the pool and that's what went viral.

"If they let me get back out the pool or got in with me then they would have been slapped again but they didn't they got kicked out …. Everyone sat around the pool after was coming up to us shaking our hands and buying us drinks because the lads were b*******!"

Since the footage went viral last weekend, it has been reposted by the footballer on his TikTok account - and he has also shared various snaps of himself on holiday in Ibiza.

Harratt recently scored the winning goal at Wembley for Oldham as they won the National League play-off final, securing themselves a spot back in the Football League.

However the player has been involved in several misdemeanours in the past. Last year while on loan at Fleetwood Town from Huddersfield Town he was fined £1,000 by police after he was caught poaching in North Yorkshire.

Harratt was also convicted of poaching at a farm in East Yorkshire in 2022 and fined £830, plus £233 costs.

Two seasons ago and Harratt was banned from the game for four months whilst he was on the books at Huddersfield after placing 484 bets on matches over a three-year period.

He was also hit with a £3,200 fine and 36 of the bets were on Huddersfield games - but insisted he was not in the matchday squad for any of them.
