Walker, who played the entire match, shared a screenshot of the abusive message on his social media accounts, urging Instagram and the authorities to take stronger measures to prevent such incidents.
Manchester City quickly condemned the racist attack, stating that they refuse to tolerate discrimination of any kind, whether in stadiums or online. The club also expressed their full support for Walker during this difficult time. The Premier League echoed this sentiment, emphasizing that racism has no place in football or society and encouraging anyone who witnesses discriminatory abuse to report it.
