An English Premier League (EPL) Chelsea executive has been fired for sending an inappropriate message containing sexual harassment to a Korean female agent.
The Daily Mail reported on the 21st (Korean time), “Chelsea’s commercial director, Damien Willoughby, was fired less than a month following hiring. Because,” he explained.
According to the media, it was confirmed that Willoughby sent messages and videos containing sexual content to C&P Sports CEO Catalina Kim, a Korean female agent who works as a European soccer agent.
Catalina Kim protested the matter to Chelsea chairman Tom Glick, and Wallerby was fired following an investigation into the club.
Willoughby sent Catalina Kim sexual text messages in July 2021, such as “Are you naked? I’m naked,” and also sent explicit videos. He has also offered to arrange a meeting with Manchester City chief executive Ferran Soriano.
“It happened before Willoughby was hired, but it is absolutely once morest the club’s culture,” Chelsea said. This will force Willer Bee to leave Chelsea following a month in office.
