A Tottenham Hotspur fan has been reported for alleged racial abuse of Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger in today’s Premier League clash.
Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta made referee Anthony Taylor aware of supposed monkey chants that were made towards the German, moments after he’d been involved in an incident which saw Son Heung-min sent off.

Here is Azpilicueta reporting the incident. You can see the Spaniard make a monkey gesture, which the cameras later picked up Rudiger doing as they tried to signal to the referee what happened. A tannoy announcement in the stadium confirmed that Chelsea had made a complaint of racist abuse.

A tannoy announcement has just gone out at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium saying there is no room for racist behaviour in the game. Some claims that Rudiger reported racist abuse to the referee during the match.

Losing to Chelsea, Gazzaniga assaulting Alonso, Son seeing red…nothing excuses this disgusting behaviour on an increasingly dark day for the club.
I hope the fool is identified and banned for life.
Defo leant a bit heavy on the St Emilion, tonight. But it’s doing the trick.
Life long ban. Photo of cretin including full name on all news channels with headline; THICK IDIOT EMBARRASSES FAMILY, FOOTBALL CLUB, AND COUNTRY.
The climate of toxicity comes from the top.
ENIC OUT!
