Lawyer of Rangers star Glen Kamara breaks silence on claims he had bust-up with Gio van Bronckhorst
GLEN KAMARA'S lawyer has hit back at claims suggesting he was involved in a bust-up with Gio van Bronckhorst.
Reports had said the Rangers star had a 'furious disagreement' with his under pressure boss after his side dropped more points at St Mirren on Saturday.
Held to a scoreless first half at the SMiSA stadium the under-pressure manager made a substitution at the interval in an attempt to revive his team's lacklustre display.
However the change did not have the anticipated effect and it was St Mirren who burst into the lead two minutes after the restart through Jonah Ayunga.
Captain James Tavernier's late penalty rescued a point for the misfiring Gers but drama followed after the game.
The half-time change where van Bronckhorst replaced midfielder Glen Kamara with Scott Arfield was reported to have been followed by a 'disagreement' between the Finnish international and his boss at the end.

It was the third time the 27-year-old had been swapped at the break by the boss through his year in charge.
But according to Aamer Anwar, the lawyer of Kamara, any information on the reported dispute is based on 'pure speculation and falsehood'.
In a post on Twitter, he said: "@GlenKamara4 is the utmost professional & has always respected the decisions the manager makes.
"His position is that there was absolutely no disagreement & any attempt to say there was is based on pure speculation or falsehood.”

Quizzed on the change by Sky Sports post-match the manager was short in his response.
He said: "I had to substitute him because I think the team needed a change with Scotty (Arfield) and more runs from midfield in the right position.
"That is all I had to say about him."
The former Dundee midfielder was highly regarded by Steven Gerrard and branded a 'Rolls-Royce' by his former boss.
However under van Bronckhorst the Finland midfielder has only started six of a possible 27 games this season.
He is said to have watched the second half from the tunnel and stood in the ground's foyer 'sporting his sponsored Red Bull beanie hat.'
The Rangers boss is already under pressure following a string of poor results.
The draw in Paisley added to a defeat to St Johnstone in Perth and being held at home by Livingston.
However the boss says he does not fear for his job - but DOES plan discussions with the club's board.
Van Bronckhorst said: "We are going to sit down and speak about the last couple of months, and which way to go forward now.
“But I have no fear. I never have fear. I just see what comes but I don’t have fear.
“We will have to see what happens. It’s football and if you have a run like this then a lot of things can happen.
“I have the backing of the board and they’ve given me confidence but in football you never know.
“I’m just disappointed with the two points we’ve dropped, that’s the only emotion I have.”
