Leicester trio issue apology as club investigates alleged 'racist orgy'

After footage emerged of players allegedly involved in an orgy during which a woman was racially abused, Leicester City will investigate.

Three Leicester City players, including the son of manager Nigel Pearson, have issued a public apology after a video emerged that it is claimed shows them racially abusing a woman while taking part in an orgy on the club's postseason tour of Thailand.

Footage obtained by The Sunday Mirror appears to show James Pearson and fellow City youngsters Tom Hopper and Adam Smith engaging in explicit acts.

In one clip, a racist comment directed towards one of the women involved in the video is also audible.
