Ryan Kent of Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers made headlines for the right and wrong reasons today.
The Scottish Sun have reported that Rangers winger Ryan Kent is in danger of being slapped with a retrospective ban.
Kent was involved in a physical confrontation with Celtic captain Scott Brown during this afternoon’s fiery Old Firm derby at Parkhead, which the hosts won 2-1.
The incident resulted in Brown on the deck after Kent appeared to make contact with the Celtic midfielder’s face.
It was missed by referee Bobby Madden, who had earlier issued Alfredo Morelos with a red card for elbowing Brown in an off-the-ball incident.
And The Scottish Sun have claimed that a suspension is potentially on the cards for the on-loan Liverpool star, who equalised for Steven Gerrard’s side today.
A ban for Kent would be another slap in the face for the Gers, who not only conceded an 86th-minute goal which sealed their fate, but whose travelling fans were goaded by Brown at the final whistle, sparking another melee between the 33-year-old and Andy Halliday this time.
Kent was the light Blues’ star of the show today and with Morelos now suspended, it could be a very trying few weeks for Gerrard and co if their second best player joins the Colombian on the sidelines.
