Tottenham issue an update on alleged racism incident at Chelsea match

Tottenham have issued an update on alleged racism incident at Chelsea match on December 22. Chelsea player Antonio Rudiger appeared to have indicated that he has been targeted with monkey chants during the game, last month. After the game, Rudiger took to Twitter to express his feelings towards racism. And now Tottenham have made an official statement, which reads: "The Club and the Metropolitan Police have now exhausted all avenues of investigation following the reported incident at our home fixture against Chelsea on 22 December. "We carried out extensive reviews of CCTV images and footage, working with professional lip readers. All materials and reports have now also been reviewed by the police who have carried out their own investigation. "The police have notified us today that, having reviewed and investigated, they have closed the crime report as they can find no evidence to support the allegation of racial abuse. "We fully support Antonio Rudiger with the action that he took - however there is no evidence to corroborate or contradict the allegation and as such neither ourselves nor the police are in a position to take any further action. "We are fiercely proud of our anti-racism work and our zero tolerance of any form of discrimination. This is one reason why we have attributed so much time and resource to investigating this matter. Had we identified anyone guilty of this we were intent on issuing them with a lifetime ban from our stadium as they would have no place among our proud, diverse fan base. "If any new information comes to light, this will be fully investigated." source - Tottenham Hotspur.com / The Guardian
