Aston Villa is disgusted by the appalling racist abuse directed towards Tyrone Mings on social media.
In the early hours of this morning, Tyrone received an abhorrent and vile private message on his social media account.
We condemn all forms of racial discrimination and will continue to stand shoulder to shoulder with Tyrone, who is an inspirational figure at the forefront of the fight against racism.
The club will continue to work closely with the Premier League, football authorities and social media platforms to tackle this disgraceful online behaviour.
