Four Chelsea fans have been suspended from attending matches while an investigation into the alleged racial abuse of Manchester City forward Raheem Sterling takes place.
The incident involving the 24‑year‑old occurred during City's 2‑0 loss at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea are fully supporting an ongoing police investigation.
The club in a statement have said that evidence of racist behaviour will result in severe sanctions including bans.
Social media users posted a video of an incident during which Sterling was shouted at as he collected the ball from behind the goal.
Sterling said he had to laugh when he heard the remarks because he expects no better.
