Manchester United ban supporter for alleged racist abuse

Manchester United have issued an “indefinite” ban to a supporter who allegedly racially abused Liverpool's Trent Alexander Arnold.

The incident occurred during Sunday's 1-1 Premier League draw.

"This individual is not welcome at Old Trafford," and "completely unacceptable" United said in a statement.

"Racism and all forms of discrimination are completely unacceptable and do not reflect the values of our club.

"Following our investigation into the alleged incidence of racist abuse on Sunday, we have issued an indefinite ban to the individual involved.

"This individual is not welcome at Old Trafford and we want to reinforce that we will continue to take strong action against anyone who we identify has engaged in racist or discriminatory abuse, either online or at our matches."

There were also alleged incidents of racist about in Bristol City's match at Luton, Northampton's game against Salford City, and the FA Cup tie between Haringey Borough and Yeovil Town.

Two away supporters were arrested after that FA Cup tie was abandoned.

The tie will be now be replayed on the 29th of October.
