The lead investigator in the case, Mike Ankers, said: “The victim of this assault has received quite serious injuries in what we believe was an unprovoked attack.”

The alleged assault happened after the England versus Serbia match on Sunday June 16 with reports saying the suspect was also a Brit fan.

Trouble flared up before England’s Euros curtain raiser against Serbia as chairs were thrown in a pub brawl – leaving an English fan with blood pouring from his head.

Sources at the scene said a group of yobs appeared to have started chaos in a restaurant near the venue city of Gelsenkirchen five hours before kick-off.

Before kick-off 200 German riot police were called in to try and restore order as bottles and glasses filled the air during the brawl.

Police at the scene said they believed the English had started the trouble – but English fans blamed the Serbs.

Cops later confirmed that six Serbs had been arrested but there were no English arrests.
