Arteta highlights ‘terrible consequences’ of online abuse after Havertz targeted

The Hindu  

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has flagged the “terrible consequences” of online abuse after Kai Havertz and his wife were targeted on social media following Sunday’s FA Cup loss to Manchester United. The Germany international came in for stinging critism but his wife also shared screenshots of abuse she received on social media, including threats to the couple’s unborn child. And we really have to do something about it, because accepting that and hiding this, I think has terrible consequences,” he told reporters. “And it’s something that we really have to eradicate from the game, because it’s so cynical as well.” The Spaniard pointed out that the whole stadium was singing in support of Havertz after he scored in a 1-0 win against Ipswich less than three weeks ago.
