Manchester City appalled to learn of racial attack against Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw
MANCHESTER CITY, England–Jamaican striker and Manchester City’s forward Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw was reportedly the victim of racist and misogynistic abuse following Sunday’s match against Arsenal.
Manchester City in a statement on Tuesday said it is appalled by the incident stating: “Discrimination of any kind, either in stadiums or online, will not be tolerated and has absolutely no place inside or outside the game.”
The Club said Shaw has decided not to share the messages publicly so as not to give the oxygen of publicity to the vile individuals who sent them.
The content has however been shared with the authorities.
An investigation will follow.
Manchester City said it offers its full support to Bunny following the ‘disgusting treatment’ she received.
