The case of an 18-year-old man who has admitted sending crass and racist messages to former footballer Ian Wright after his "character" failed to perform to expectations in a virtual soccer match, will be finalised next week, Tralee District Court was told, this Wednesday.

Patrick O’Brien of Sycamore Court, Ashleigh Downs, has already pleaded guilty to two charges in relation to the matter.
