The 47-year-old, who has been banned from going within one mile of any football stadium in the UK, has now been named.

A 47-year-old man, who was arrested after the Premier League’s season opener on Friday due to alleged racist abuse, has been banned from attending any regulated soccer match in the United Kingdom.

The ugly incident of a fan racially abusing Antoine Semenyo during Liverpool's 4-2 victory over Bournemouth has resulted in an arrest. In the 30th minute of play, Semenyo reported racist abuse from the stands and the match was stopped by referee Anthony Taylor before being resumed while an anti-discrimination message was delivered to the crowd.
