West Ham have suspended their director of recruitment Tony Henry following allegations of racism.
Apparently, the West Ham recruitment chief informed an agent that the Hammers are not interested signing more African players because of his their bad attitude. According to Henry, the African players cause mayhem when they are not selected in the lineup.
Henry also claimed that his remarks were not racist in nature and that the club management supported his policy. West Ham have moved quickly to deny such claims.
A statement from the club claims: “West Ham United will not tolerate any type of discrimination and has, therefore, acted swiftly due to the serious nature of these claims”.
