Liverpool FC ‘sorry’ for racial abuse incident

LIVERPOOL have issued an apology to Oldham defender Tom Adeyemi, who claims he was racially abused by a Reds supporter during Friday night’s FA Cup tie between the sides.

A 20-year-old man arrested on suspicion of racially abusing Adeyemi has been released on bail, police said last night.

The man, from Aintree, was arrested by Merseyside Police, who are investigating the incident, and the Premier League club has now moved to express its regret over the matter.
