""Nothing about form or league position can ever excuse or explain racist abuse. There is no connection between performance on the pitch and the right to target a player with discrimination.""
""We have heard and seen vile, dehumanising racism. Behaviour that is without doubt a criminal offence. It will not be tolerated.""
""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.""
Tottenham Hotspur condemned the racism directed at defender Kevin Danso following a match against Brighton. The club reported the abuse to police, asserting their commitment to support Danso. They emphasized that no performance-related issues justify racist behavior. The incident occurred during the Premier League's No Room For Racism campaign, which promotes diversity in football. Danso expressed that the abuse does not define him and highlighted the need for action against discrimination in football and society.
