Willian has called for more action to be taken to eradicate racism in football after Chelsea teammate Antonio Rudiger was allegedly abused during Sunday’s 2-0 win at Tottenham.
Defender Rudiger was targeted shortly after Son Heung-min had been sent off for kicking out at his opponent during the second half of the Premier League fixture.
Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta reported the incident to referee Anthony Taylor and an anti-racism message was relayed to supporters inside Tottenham Hotspur Stadium via the public address system.
Spurs’ investigation into what happened remains ongoing. Willian who scored both goals in the London derby said he is hoping governing bodies will look to take a stronger stance on the issue.
Chelsea play next on December 26, hosting Southampton at Stamford Bridge.
