Latest Liverpool news: Liverpool condemn terrible chants regarding Mohamed Salah from some Chelsea fans

Liverpool have responded to an online video highlighting some Chelsea fans singing about Mohamed Salah being a “bomber”.

Some Chelsea supporters were in Prague singing about their former player ahead of their Europa League quarter-final clash against Slavia Prague.

The Independent adds that “Salah is a bomber” can be heard in the video and Liverpool have called for action regarding the video (h/t Independent):

“The video circulating online, showing vile discriminatory chants being aimed at one of our players, is dangerous and disturbing.”

The Reds further highlighted similar abuse across England and Europe and also on social media.

Liverpool called these actions as “unadulterated bigotry” and wanted the perpetrators to be punished (h/t Independent).

Chelsea act swiftly regarding the abuse

Chelsea released a statement where they confirmed strong action would be taken against those involved in the incident (h/t Independent):

“Chelsea FC finds all forms of discriminatory behaviour abhorrent and where there is clear evidence of Chelsea season ticket holders or members involved in such behaviour, we will take the strongest possible action against them.”

The release further claimed that such supporters are an “embarrassment” to the Chelsea fans, who won’t tolerate such people in the club.

The Evening Standard adds that the Chelsea security team worked before the game kicked off against Prague.

The Standard claims that three individuals were stopped from entering the stadium as Chelsea won the tie 1-0.

This isn’t the first time Chelsea’s European campaign has come under the shadow. The Standard adds that the Blues were fined £11,100 during their away games against Malmo when supporters threw objects and invaded the pitch.
