Manchester City ‘Appalled’ by Racist Abuse Directed at ‘Bunny’ Shaw

Manchester City say they are “appalled” after learning striker Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw was subjected to racist and misogynistic abuse following Sunday’s Women’s Super League loss to Arsenal.

City confirmed the content has been shared with the relevant authorities and an investigation will be held.

Jamaica international Shaw decided not to share the messages in order to avoid giving the individuals responsible any publicity.

Shaw made her 100th appearance for Manchester City as a substitute in Sunday’s 4-3 home loss against Arsenal.

The forward has scored 86 times for City and was named the Club’s Player of the Year in each of the last two seasons.
