The Tottenham Hotspur has been fined £75,000 (approximately $100,710) by the Football Association (FA) due to the inappropriate conduct of its fans.
The incident occurred during the Premier League match against Manchester United in September, where homophobic chants were heard coming from the club’s fans.
The club, at the time, strongly condemned what happened and collaborated with the local police and stadium security to identify those responsible for these “aberrant homophobic chants” at Old Trafford.
The Tottenham were charged in November. An independent regulatory commission imposed an action plan, a fine of £150,000, and a warning, after the club admitted the charges. Following an appeal, the fine was reduced to £75,000.
It was alleged that Tottenham Hotspur failed to ensure that its spectators and/or supporters conducted themselves in an orderly manner and did not use words or behave in an improper, offensive, abusive, indecent or insulting manner, with express or implied reference to sexual orientation, around the 49th and 79th minutes.
The Tottenham Hotspur will kick off their 2025-26 Premier League campaign on August 16, playing at home against Burnley.
