Tottenham Hotspur is investigating an alleged incident of racism by a supporter of South Korean striker Son Heung-min during Sunday's Premier League loss to Manchester United.
"While the incident occurred at home, we have not yet determined whether the alleged individual was a supporter of Tottenham Hotspur or not," a spokesman for the Spurs said.
"The club will not tolerate any type of racist, discriminatory or antisocial behavior.
"We have a strict attitude of zero tolerance in this regard and will take action against anyone who behaves or uses abusive, offensive or obscene language."
Dickens said he is working with the club to identify the supporter.
"I have not experienced racism in football for about 15 years," Dickens wrote on Twitter. "But today at @SpursOfficial it was horrible," I informed the curators, I confronted myself.
"The Spurs have been in contact and I will work with them to find the person," he wrote. "Face racism and it will not survive, let it go and it will get worse."I've not experienced racism at football for about 15 years. But today at @SpursOfficial was hideous. Reported to stewards, confronted him myself and was called a c*nt. While I was standing next to my son. Hideous.— James Dickens (@JamesWDickens) January 13, 2019
Last month, Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino said he wanted to "kill" the bad behavior and racism from the stands after a fan threw a banana skin to the field during the 4-2 loss at home. Arsenal.
Three Chelsea supporters were arrested for public order crimes racially aggravated in the first leg semi-final of the League Cup between Tottenham and Chelsea on Tuesday.
The Spurs' 1-0 defeat at United was Son's last game with the club this month, as he will join South Korea for his Asian Cup campaign in the United Arab Emirates.
