Dominic Calvert-Lewin: Everton condemn “threatening, racist, and misogynistic” abuse of striker’s wife Sandra

Everton have condemned “threatening, racist, and misogynistic” abuse aimed towards the wife of Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

Sandra Calvert-Lewin received online abuse after posting a message in support of her husband, who played his final game at Goodison Park in Sunday’s 2-0 win over Southampton.

The 28-year-old forward scored 30 Premier League goals for the Toffees at their home ground – a record bettered only by Duncan Ferguson and Romelu Lukaku.

: “30 goals at Goodison. Top 3 ever. They might not shout it – but we’re proud every single day.”

The English forward has endured a dismal campaign, scoring just twice at Goodison Park this season, and her post was criticised by some Toffees supporters.

The club said: “Everton Football Club strongly condemns the threatening, racist, and misogynistic abuse directed towards the wife of Dominic Calvert-Lewin on social media.

“This sinister and intimidating behaviour is not only deeply hurtful and distressing, it is also criminal – and does not represent the values of Everton or the overwhelming majority of our supporters.

“The club has a zero-tolerance policy towards all forms of discriminatory and abusive behaviour. We are working closely with Merseyside Police and the Premier League to ensure the individuals responsible are identified and held accountable for their actions.

“Threats or abuse of any kind – whether online or in person – are completely unacceptable and have no place in our game or in society. The club urges anyone who sees or experiences such behaviour to report it to the authorities and relevant social media platforms immediately.

“We will continue to offer our full support to Dominic and his family.”
