Brother of United's Mame Biram Diouf beaten up after Manchester derby

Update Smile

Quote:LONDON — The brother of Manchester United striker Mame Biram Diouf is recovering from an attack by rival fans outside Manchester City's stadium on Saturday.

Abdul Diouf watched United beat its fierce city rival 1-0 in the English Premier League with an injury-time goal before a group of home fans spotted the United shirt he was wearing as he left. He was punched and kicked to the ground, but was not seriously injured.

Diouf's agent, Jim Solbakken, said his client's brother was fine and they decided against making a complaint to the police over the attack. "The case is closed," Solbakken said. "He was walking about in a Manchester United shirt. It wasn't a smart thing to do."

Greater Manchester Police confirmed they had not received a report about the incident and were therefore not planning to take any action.
Manchester City has not received any complaint either.

Abdul Diouf's shirt was adorned with the No. 32 his brother wears for United. The number was previously worn at United by striker Carlos Tevez before his contentious cross-city transfer to City in July.
