Chelsea impose Stamford Bridge ban on season ticket holder suspected of racial abuse Son

Chelsea have banned a supporter from Stamford Bridge after investigating allegations of racist abuse against Tottenham's Son Heung-min.

The incident happened in the second half of last Sunday's 2-2 draw between rivals London, as hosts Chelsea were twice dismissed and denied victory.

Footage emerged on social media on Wednesday appearing to show Son being the target of a racist gesture from the stands at Stamford Bridge as he went for a corner in front of home fans.

This was followed on Thursday by Chelsea condemning 'idiots like this who attach themselves to this club as so-called 'fans'", saying such an incident had brought the Blues to shame.

Chelsea have pledged to take 'the strongest action' as they work to identify the fan in question, and on Saturday the Premier League club revealed they have found a culprit .

The club said: "Following our statement this week about racist abuse during Tottenham's game last Sunday, Chelsea Football Club can confirm that they have identified and indefinitely banned a season ticket holder."< /p>
