EPL: Leeds vow action against racist abuse of Bogle

Leeds United has vowed to take strong action against those responsible for directing racist abuse at defender Jayden Bogle following their 1-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday. Bogle was targeted with racist messages on social media after escaping a red card for a first-half challenge on Tottenham forward Mathys Tel, who was forced off following the incident.

Both clubs have condemned the incident, with Leeds describing themselves as appalled by the behavior and promising to work with the Premier League and relevant authorities to identify and punish those responsible. Tottenham has also pledged to support efforts to identify the individuals and face the full consequences of their actions.
