A 12-year-old boy who sent racist messages to Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha was 'extremely remorseful' and underwent education sessions as part of a restorative justice process, police have said.
Zaha was subjected to racist abuse on social media ahead of Palace's game against Aston Villa in July.
The Ivorian star commented on his Instagram to his one million followers, 'woke up to this today.'
In two messages Zaha was told 'you better not score tomorrow you black c***' before the poster added 'or I'll come to your house dressed as a ghost.
