HE was the cameraman behind the horrific video of Kurt Zouma kicking and slapping his pet cat.
And just like his footballer brother, Yoan Zouma is coming under the spotlight for his part in the shocking abuse incident.
Who is Kurt Zouma’s brother Yoan?
Born May 6, 1998, Yoan Zouma is Kurt Zouma’s younger brother.
The 23-year-old is a professional footballer and currently plays for Dagenham & Redbridge as a defender.
Yoan was behind the camera filming Kurt who was seen booting his cat like a football and slapping its face.
The video was posted to Snapchat on the afternoon of Sunday, February 6, 2022 – a day after the centre-back appeared for West Ham in the FA Cup.
The first clip was captioned “sa commence”, which translates into English as “it is starting”. It is replaced with a dozen laughing face emojis in later clips.
The video has been highly criticised online with thousands contacting the RSPCA.
In July 2018, Kurt posted on Twitter celebrating Yoan joining Bolton Wanderers on a two-year contract.
He wrote: “Sooo proud of my little brother for his first professional contract! Congrats little bro it’s just the beginning. May God bless you always.”
What happened in Kurt Zouma cat video?
Premier League ace Kurt was filmed booting his cat like a football across his kitchen floor and slapping his pet’s face.
The West Ham star, 27, is seen attacking the pet at his £2million mansion while his brother films him.
The French international then chases the animal around his dining room in front of a child as the cameraman laughs.
Zouma also hurls a pair of designer shoes at the pet — which frantically tries to escape.
In a final clip, he is seen forcefully slapping the cat in the face — and out of the child’s arms.
The club has condemned his actions and will “deal with the matter internally”.
It is understood the £30million former Chelsea player was furious that the Bengal — an expensive breed of domesticated cat that looks like a small leopard — messed up his house.
Does Kurt Zouma have any other brothers?
Kurt and Yoan have an older brother called Lionel.
He was born on September 10, 1993, and is also a professional footballer.
Lionel made his professional debut on October 16, 2011, while playing for Sochaux.
He now plays as a central defender for Vevey United and the Central African national team.
