Police are investigating the display of a banner by
Crystal Palace
fans
caricaturing the
Saudi fund's
purchase of
Newcastle United
.
On that banner, which was displayed during the 1-1 draw between Palace and Newcastle on Saturday, you can see a man dressed as an Arab and another who appears to be
Richard Masters
, president of the Premier League,
stained in blood
.
In addition, a poster appears with a series of crimes allegedly committed by
Saudi Arabia
, such as censorship, persecution, terrorism, murder and violation of human rights.
The
Palace fans
group
'Holmesdale Fanatics'
have claimed responsibility for the banner and have said that the
Premier League
has accepted this operation, while launching initiatives to promote equality and women's football, is a sample of
" hypocrisy "
and the lack of principles in a sport where money rules.
The Croydon Metropolitan Police issued a statement announcing that they had received an alert for an offensive banner at the Selhurst Park stadium and that they would take action on the matter taking "any attempt at racism very seriously."
