The Metropolitan Police have arrested eight men following an investigation into a torrent of online racist abuse aimed at an unnamed Tottenham player.

Four others were interviewed under caution as part of the Met Police’s nationwide action on suspicion of using words or behaviour, or displaying written material with intent to stir up racial hatred.

The investigation began after a member of the Spurs squad was racially abused on Twitter following their 3-1 home defeat to Manchester United on April 11.
