The Metropolitan Police are investigating a racially aggravated tweet aimed at Bukayo Saka following Sunday’s 2-2 draw against West Ham.

A message posted on Twitter soon after the Gunners dropped two valuable points in the title race depicted Saka as a monkey, alongside the words: ‘This clown has cost us the league.’ Under the post, another Twitter user tagged the Metropolitan Police and said the message was a hate crime. ‘This has already been reported and is currently being investigated,’ the police force replied on Tuesday.Saka has enjoyed a stellar campaign, enhancing his burgeoning reputation by playing a leading role in Arsenal’s unlikely challenge to be crowned Premier League champions.
He did the same for England in a penalty shootout loss to Italy in the European Championship final in 2021. Saka was abused along with fellow black players Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho, who also failed from 12 yards.
