Following a 2-2 draw with Brighton, Tottenham has strongly denounced the racist abuse targeted at defender Kevin Danso. The club has reported the 'vile, dehumanising racism' on social media to the police. Danso addressed the issue on Instagram, stating that the racist comments do not define him and will not distract him from his focus on the game. Tottenham's statement emphasized that such behaviour will not be tolerated and that the club is taking immediate action by reporting all identified content to the authorities and social media platforms.
The Premier League and Kick It Out have also issued statements condemning the racist abuse and reaffirming their commitment to addressing discrimination in football.
