Cardiff City have confirmed they are working with South Wales Police following the emergence of a 'stomach-churning' video allegedly showing a fan racially abusing Swansea City's Michael Obafemi.
The video, which was widely circulated on social media on Thursday night, appears to show a Cardiff fan using racist language when discussing the striker during the recent South Wales derby defeat at home to Swansea City on April 2. The Swans recorded a 4-0 win over their rivals to secure an unprecedented derby double, with Obafemi netting a brace.
In a statement responding to the incident, a Cardiff spokesperson said: " Cardiff City have spoken at length with Kick It Out on the matter, have passed evidence on to South Wales Police and will fully support their investigations. The club is disgusted by the deplorable, stomach-churning language and stands by football's commitment to stamping out such abhorrent behaviour. There is no place for it in our sport or society."
