Arsenal have launched an investigation into “two disturbing incidents” of anti-Semitism throughout Sunday’s north London derby win in opposition to rivals Tottenham Hotspur.
The Gunners say one Arsenal supporter reported one other for making “grossly offensive” feedback.
Meanwhile, anti-Semitic slogans had been additionally reportedly heard in a pub in Islington.
“Discriminatory abuse of any kind is not welcome at our club,” Arsenal mentioned.
Premier League leaders mentioned in a press release: “We have been made aware of two disturbing incidents over the weekend, which are now under investigation.
“There was an incident involving Arsenal supporters at Sunday’s North London derby during which one in all our followers overheard grossly offensive anti-Semitic statements made by one other Arsenal fan.
“The same afternoon, we were shocked to hear of an incident at The Kelly pub in Islington, which included other anti-Semitic chants.
“We acknowledge the influence this habits has had on a lot of our Jewish supporters and others and condemn the usage of one of these language which has no place in our sport or society.”
Arsenal said that anyone identified would receive a longer club ban and that their details would be given to the police to begin legal proceedings.
The Gunners won the game 2–0 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to move eight points clear at the top of the Premier League.
The game was also marred by an incident involving Aaron Ramsdale after Arsenal goalkeeper supporters had been attacked.
