Chelsea fans launch fund to give racism victim an all-expenses paid trip to London

Chelsea fans outraged at the Paris race attack have launched a fund to give the victim an all-expenses paid trip to Stamford Bridge.

They want the man, Souleymane S (Picture top right), his wife and children to come over to meet “real” Chelsea fans.

 

Video of Blues fans racially abusing him on the Metro before a Champions League match sparked outrage.

Fund organiser Caroline Rice hopes to raise £2,000. She said: “I was shocked and horrified by the racist event, so I have decided to put my money where my mouth is.”

Tonight, more than 75 fans had already given more than £800.

 

Chelsea who have suspended five fans from Stamford Bridge following the incident are also planning to arrange for Souleymane S to visit Stamford Bridge.

Police have released images of the three fans they think were involved. 

The above three faces are the faces of the three men the Metropolitan Police are seeking the public's help to identify in connection with a disgraceful race row on a train carriage in Paris.

The trio are thought to be Chelsea supporters involved in racist chanting while a black man was pushed from a Metro carriage ahead of the Premier League club's game with Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
