Instagram and the authorities must stop this for the sake of everyone who suffers this abuse. It is never acceptable. To our fans, we will continue working as a team to do better, to improve and move forward together,” he noted in his complaint.

We refuse to tolerate any form of discrimination, whether in stadiums or online. We will offer Kyle our full support following the disgusting treatment he suffered. has received,” said the English club.
