Phil Neville reveals horrific Instagram messages sent by trolls to England women star Karen Carney 'wishing she got cancer'

The sickening messages sent to the footballer were also shared by her manager Phil Neville on his Instagram account.


The first message, sent by social media user "dzo09" on Wednesday read: "How many chances you need to score in second half stupid b******"

This appears to be in relation to Chelsea's Women's Champions League last-16 first leg victory against Fiorentina.

Carney, 31, actually scored from the penalty spot in the eighth minute as the London side secured a 1-0 victory.

The sick troll then wrote: "I wish you cancer and leukemia", followed with: "I hope someone will rape you to death."


In sharing the horrific messages on her Instagram Stories section, Carney, who has been capped 133 times by England, tagged it: "Wow some people…"

Lionesses boss Neville shared the screenshot of the messages onto his Instagram account.

"He wrote: "A message sent to one of my @lionesses players last night absolutely disgraceful – @instagram are you going to do something about it!!!!!"

Unsurprisingly the vile abuse the football ace received was slammed by social media users.

One described it as "absolutely shocking" while another added that the troll was "a disgrace".

Instagram user rfcwilliam_e wrote: "Vile humans Phil no place in society for bullying like this, love watching the @lionesses hope you have every success in the future .

And Emma Corbet wrote: Absolutely disgusting! wishing something like that on someone is utterly evil."

The person who posted the messages has a private account, with 383 followers.
