Frank urges ‘real’ Spurs fans to back Tel after racist abuse
Saturday Star
|August 16, 2025
THOMAS Frank urged Tottenham fans to back Mathys Tel in today’s Premier League opener against Burnley after the French forward was racially abused this week.
-
Tel endured racist taunts on social media following his missed penalty in the shootout defeat against Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Super Cup on Wednesday.
Tottenham said they were “disgusted” at the abuse and Tel’s teammates Dominic Solanke and Richarlison sent messages of support online.
Anti-discrimination charity Kick It Out warned players may think twice about taking penalties in the future after the abuse of the 20-year-old.
Ahead of former Brentford boss Frank’s first league game in charge of Tottenham, the Dane demanded Tel be shown love and respect from supporters in north London this weekend.
“It's of course terrible what happened to Matty and we're doing everything we can to support him in this situation,” Frank told reporters yesterday.
