We join Liverpool Football Club in strongly condemning the disgusting racist abuse directed at Ibrahima Konate and have offered our full support to the player and club. We are appalled by the ongoing racism players are facing on social media. Discriminatory abuse has absolutely no place in football or wider society. Anybody who chooses to abuse others is not welcome in our game and they are not a true fan. It is clear that more needs to be done to address this issue and we will work alongside clubs, football bodies, law enforcement and social media companies to ensure this remains a priority for all. Any individuals identified and found guilty of discrimination will face the strongest possible consequences, including club bans and legal prosecution.
