A 14-year-old boy who subjected Sheffield United striker Rhian Brewster to racist abuse on Instagram has been referred to Youth Offending Services by Staffordshire Police.
In March, former Liverpool forward Brewster made public an abusive message he received on his Instagram account.
Sheffield United, who signed the England Under-21 international during October 2020 in a £23.5million deal, offered Brewster their full support and called on authorities to take action.
An investigation by South Yorkshire Police resulted in the Staffordshire force taking on matters after an individual had been identified.
