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 attack happened after the opening Euros game for England when they faced Serbia on Sunday June 16 at around 10pm.

UK footballing authorities have released a photo of the suspect who they believe is also a Three Lions supporter.

The UK Football Policing Unit praised England fans this week for their behaviour in Germany as just three supporters have been arrested.

One of those arrested was detained for throwing a bottle, another for abusing a UK officer and the third for throwing a missile at police and possession of drugs.

It comes as two England fans were left requiring medical help after Thursday’s night pitiful draw to Denmark after celebrations of the Three Lions’ opening goal went too far.

Chad Thomas, a fan of non-league side Frickley Athletic, told SunSport that he rolled his ankle celebrating Harry Kane’s 18th minute strike.

He tweeted a picture of himself from an ambulance with strapping around his ankle saying: “Goal injury celebration.”

Chad added: “I blame Harry Kane for that madness. And judging by the 2nd half on my phone. I didn’t miss anything inside the stadium.”

A second England fan was left with a severely swollen ankle.

Claiming that he’d fallen off a chair while celebrating the goal saying he had “snapped every ligament in his ankle”.

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.
