Leeds United Fan Handed Three-Year Banning Order for Offensive Chants

A Leeds United fan has been given a three-year football banning order after making offensive chants about the death of Cardiff City player Emiliano Sala during their match at Elland Road in August.

Harry Keyes, 22, was arrested after police evidence gatherers saw him making aeroplane gestures, believed to be in reference to Sala’s tragic death in a plane crash in 2019. He was charged with a Section 5 public order offence and pleaded guilty at Leeds Magistrates Court today.
