Southampton defender Kyle Walker-Peters says more needs to be done to prevent online racist abuse.
Offensive remarks were posted in the comments of the 25-year-old's week-old Instagram post after his side's goalless draw with Manchester United.
Saints have contacted the police and criticised social media platforms.
"The racial abuse I received is something that no player or person should ever have to experience," Walker-Peters wrote on Instagram.
"We need to be better, and this is bigger than just football. More needs to be done to prevent this from happening time and time again.
