Chelsea have announced they have suspended three people from Stamford Bridge as a result of investigations into the incident on the Paris Metro on Tuesday evening.

Fans of the club were videotaped preventing a black man from boarding the metro and also sang a racist chant ahead of the Blues' Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday.

In a statement, the London club said: "Chelsea Football Club is suspending three people from Stamford Bridge as a result of investigations into the incident on the Paris Metro on Tuesday evening.

"If it is deemed there is sufficient evidence of their involvement in the incident, the club will issue banning orders for life.

"We have received substantial information to date following our witness appeal and we are grateful to the many Chelsea supporters who have provided information so far."
