Fans urged to drop 'racist' Lukaku chant

British anti-discrimination group Kick It Out on Tuesday called on Manchester United fans to stop a "racist" chant about striker Romelu Lukaku.

The 24-year-old arrived from Everton in the summer and has quickly become a popular figure, netting seven goals in as many games.

Lukaku already has a chant in his honour but the song refers to the size of his 'manhood', using a stereotype about black men that has led Kick It Out to call for action.

A United spokesman said: "We are seeking advice from the relevant bodies. We have a zero-tolerance (approach) towards discrimination."
