Arsene Wenger fury over Granit Xhaka race storm at Heathrow Airport

Arsene Wenger will read the riot act to Granit Xhaka after his £34million midfielder was accused of racism during a heated row at Heathrow Airport.

Xhaka is alleged to have called a member of British Airways staff a ‘f****** white b****’ during an argument on Monday.

The Swiss was interviewed by police under caution. He disputes the wording of the allegation, particularly the racial element.
