Aberdeen have launched an investigation to identify the individual who allegedly directed racial abuse at club captain Anthony Stewart.
Stewart was targeted on social media after being sent off as Aberdeen lost 3-1 to St Mirren in the cinch Premiership on Saturday.
Aberdeen were leading 1-0 when Stewart hauled back Jonah Ayunga and Mark O’Hara’s resulting penalty turned the game in St Mirren’s favour.
The club strongly condemn all forms of discrimination and are shocked at the racist abuse aimed at our captain, Anthony Stewart.
