This comes after the striker allegedly attacked a man and smashed his phone on the floor
The footage, which was captured on a mobile phone on Saturday evening, begins with a man calling out 'Oli McBurnie', before the man believed to be the Sheffield United star walks towards the phone and seemingly smashes it when it falls to the ground.
The mobile phone continues to record the video, which shows the man thought to be McBurnie attacking the man who called out his name.
The footage, which has now gone viral, seems to show the man being punched and kneed.

The fight then seems to continue out of shot.
A statement released by Sheffield United on Monday night read: "Officials at Sheffield United are aware of the video circulating on social media and are currently investigating."
As reported by
