Viewers left stunned after X-rated stunt live on Sky Sports News during deadline day

Viewers were left stunned after a person produced an X-rated stunt during Sky Sports' live coverage of transfer deadline.

Sky Sports have been across all the major dealings ahead of tonight's transfer deadline.

Their reporters have been up and down the country and outside stadiums, including Kaveh Solhekol.

At 6pm (UK time), Solhekol was stood outside Stamford Bridge as he provided the latest on Raheem Sterling and Chelsea's pursuit of Jadon Sancho from Manchester United.

As he was speaking, a person appears behind him, seemingly waving a dummy which resembled male genital.

The stunt prompted Kaveh to stop his segment as one of his colleagues came into shot to move him away from the scene.

It eventually went back to the studio, where Dharmesh Sheth and Mike Wedderburn were on hand.

Shortly after the incident, Wedderburn issued a brief apology, saying: "We are talking Chelsea - apologies for earlier if you saw anything at Stamford Bridge that offended you. Apologies for that."

Needless to say, the shocking moment sent social media wild.

One X user joked: "Extraordinary. Internet classic."

A second said: "Nah why they gotta do my man like that, he ain’t do nothing to nobody."

A third added: "It's happened again."

YouTube prankster Jarvo69 appears to have taken responsibility for the stunt, having shared footage on his social media platforms.
