Tottenham Hotspur has reported racist abuse targeting Austrian defender Kevin Danso to police, describing the messages as "vile, dehumanising racism." The abuse followed a 2-2 Premier League draw with Brighton & Hove Albion on 18 April 2026, in which Danso was blamed for conceding a stoppage-time equaliser that left Tottenham in the relegation zone. The incident highlights the continued problem of online racist abuse aimed at footballers in England's top flight.
