McGregor went viral on social media after he was videoed landing two punches on a man in a nightclub.
The victim of the attack has been named by Wayne Lineker, who expressed his 'disappointment' at the former UFC double champion.

"This is my very close friend who has worked at Ocean for eight years, he has the most special heart and in all of the years that I’ve known him he has never raised his voice once.
"He took two punches from Conor McGregor in Pacha for absolutely no reason.
"Let me introduce you to Joe Gooomez (sic). He took the punches like a champion.
"I’ve since deleted my post of Conor at Ocean on Sunday. To say I’m disappointed is an understatement.

On X, the journalist wrote: "Understood Spanish cops not investigating ex-UFC fighter at the moment."
The attack occurred on Spanish soil as McGregor whisked his football team to Ibiza for a celebratory trip after they won their local league.
But the holiday has been marred by McGregor's antics, with one of the victim's pals speaking out on the incident.

"He has worked with Wayne for a long time and Wayne is very loyal to his staff," he told The Sun.
"Conor had a great deal at Ocean - he got a table and drinks for free. Now that benefit may well be taken away.
"If you were around Conor in the club and you took your phone out, you'd be told to put it away.
"I don't know how Joe got that close to begin with.

"Joe's not said anything about pressing charges or making a formal complaint to the police.
"He had some time off booked after the incident anyway, but Wayne has been very good at handling it.
"Joe's fine and there was no injury from the punches. It was obviously a shock, and he feels he was in the wrong place at the wrong time."
