Chelsea have asked fans to come forward anonymously with information in a bid to help identify the culprits of a seemingly racially-motivated incident in Paris on Tuesday night.
The Premier League club have appealed for witnesses after footage emerged of Chelsea fans in Paris refusing to let a black passenger on to a Metro train before chanting: 'We're racist, we're racist and that's the way we like it.'
The supporters were travelling to their Champions League last 16 tie with Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes and filmed at the Richelieu-Drouot station at about 7.30pm.
The fans prevent the man getting aboard by twice pushing him back on to the platform before he is subjected to the vile chants, and Chelsea have since released the following statement: 'Chelsea Football Club is appealing for witnesses regarding the reported incident on public transport in Paris yesterday (Tuesday).
'To help us with our investigations and to identify those persons involved, we ask those who were present to forward their observations, in the strictest confidence, to customer.services@chelseafc.com'
