The Football Association are understood to be opening an investigation into Andre Gray’s homophobic tweets which surfaced over the weekend.
Burnley’s star striker, who scored in victory over Liverpool on Saturday, called for homosexuals to be ‘burned’ in one of a number of vile social media postings dating back to 2012.
Gray was with non-League Hinckley Town then and the FA are thought to have taken a dim view of the tweets, some of which have been deemed sexist by critics.
