The Premier League: The Premier League has strongly condemned the racist abuse directed at Tottenham Hotspur defender Kevin Danso on social media, reiterating that discrimination has no place in football or wider society and warning of the strongest possible consequences for offenders.

“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,” the Premier League said in a statement released on X.

The Premier League also acknowledged the continuing challenge of tackling online racism despite repeated campaigns and enforcement measures. It stressed the need for collective action involving clubs, authorities and technology platforms to curb such incidents.
