arrested after violent clashes in Manchester city centre.
Three football fans have been arrested after violence broke out
in Manchester city centre, police have confirmed.
Footage of groups of supporters clashing near Sinclair's Oyster
Bar emerged just four hours prior to Manchester City's
Champions League game with Sevilla at the Etihad Stadium on
Wednesday.
Hooligans are seen throwing chairs, glasses and a bicycle at a
rival group, before attempting to force their way through barriers
around the exterior section of the bar.
"3 x Polish football fans arrested for a violent disorder following
the incident at Shambles Square earlier this evening," Greater
Manchester Police later confirmed via Twitter.
The fans are reported to be followers of Slask Wroclaw, who
have developed a rivalry with Sevilla in recent years following a
skirmish between ultras ahead of a Europa League game in
2013.
