'No case to answer' in Baggies racism investigation

Related Topics: No case to answer

West Bromwich Albion have found there is "no case to answer" following a two-month investigation into allegations of racism from a member of staff.

In May, the Championship side suspended an employee after allegations were made in a 10-point grievance letter seen by BBC Sport.

The letter included accusations of "racist and biased practises" in repeated incidents against black players at the club.

Albion said the independent investigation led by a "leading UK law firm" had concluded, with no further action to be taken.

"It found that there was no case to answer in any of the allegations made, there were no incidents of racism or discriminatory behaviour and no breaches of the club’s equality policy or any other policies," a club statement said.
