Anti-discrimination charity Kick it Out says it has received a "significant number" of complaints about a racial slur Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur used about team-mate Son Heung-min.
Appearing on Uruguayan TV, Bentancur was asked by a presenter for a Tottenham shirt, before replying: "Sonny's? It could be Sonny's cousin too as they all look the same."
Bentancur later apologised on Instagram and said his comments were a "very bad joke".
"Kick It Out has received a significant number of reports about Rodrigo Bentancur’s comments," the charity said.
