Thierry Henry quits Instagram and Twitter as he calls for action over racist abuse

Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has quit social media and says he will not return until proper action is taken over racist abuse. 

Several Premier League footballers past and present, including Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha, Chelsea defender Reece James and former Arsenal striker Ian Wright, have shared the vile abuse they have received on social media over the last few months. 

Social media companies have been urged to implement tougher measures in order to stop people, who often hide behind anonymous accounts, from being able to send abuse. (Metro)
