Chelsea manager Emma Hayes has thrown her 'full support' behind Sam Kerr as she addressed her superstar striker's court case on Wednesday.
On Monday night, Daily Mail exclusively revealed that Kerr will face a criminal trial in February next year after being accused of racially harassing a police officer.
The 2018 Young Australian of the Year will seek to have the charge, which stemmed from an alleged dispute over a taxi fare, thrown out of court.
It later emerged that Kerr allegedly called PC Lovell a 'stupid white PC' and vomited in the taxi.
