'That video. Just drained. Maybe time for a break': Ian Wright says video of George Floyd's murder in Minneapolis has left him 'tired' just weeks after Arsenal legend revealed he found his racial Instagram abuse 'dehumanising' and 'humiliating'

Ian Wright has admitted it is 'maybe time for a bit of a break' after watching the video of George Floyd being murdered by a police officer in Minneapolis left him 'tired'.

Mr Lloyd had a knee pressed into his neck while being detained and died on the scene in Minneapolis. The incident has sparked furious protests across the United States and some have descended into looting and arson in some areas.

Police officer Derek Chauvin, 44, has been charged with third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter after the death of Mr Floyd who begged for air while being arrested on Monday.
