Racial abuse directed at Kamara’s will not be investigated by UEFA

The Finnish Football Federation revealed that UEFA will not investigate the racial abuse Glen Kamara was subjected to.

The Finland FA released a statement saying that

Glen Kamara

does not intend to complain about being racially abused by a Montenegro player on Monday’s Nations League battle.

According to the UEFA and

Sky Sports News

, there has not been a report of the incident to the governing body.

A statement from the Finnish FA said:

"Our team management and the players told the referee appointed by UEFA and the match delegate their views on the incident of racism in the match against Montenegro immediately after the match.

"In the same context, the referee and the match delegate informed the Finnish team management that the matter was known to them and taken into account, which calmed down the situation that had aroused strong emotions after the game.

"However, in the discussions held between us and UEFA on Tuesday, it has become clear that the match delegate's report will not ultimately lead to an investigation.

"In UEFA's system, the initiation of an investigation requires the player's confirmation or the player's own notification of the matter or confirmation of the matter by other players, officials or referees.

"Glen Kamara does not want to make an official announcement to UEFA or comment on the matter.

"So the suspicion of racism does not progress to UEFA's disciplinary investigation."

Kamara told Sky Sports News in March that he is dealing with many racial abuses on social media following the incident of Ondrej Kudela last year. According to the Finland international, he was abused by Kudela in

Rangers

' battle against

Slavia Prague

in the Europa League in 2021. Kudela, who received a 10-match ban due to racist behavior, did not accept the allegations.
