Tottenham vow to track down fans who allegedly displayed offensive banner referring to Chelsea player Marcos Alonso's 2011 car crash

Tottenham Hotspur have vowed to take action after supporters allegedly carried a banner that referred to Marcos Alonso's involvement in a 2011 car crash that resulted in the death of a young woman.

The Chelsea defender's name was at the top of the banner - apparently displayed by two supporters outside Huddersfield Town's stadium on Saturday - with symbols for no drinking and a car underneath. At the bottom were the words: 'He murdered a girl.'

Alonso was 20 years old and a Bolton Wanderers player when he was involved in the Madrid car crash that led to the death of the 19-year-old woman.
