Police have launched an investigation after Sunderland striker Darren Bent alleged that a Black Cats fan racially abused his mother during the club's 1-0 defeat against Wigan on Saturday.
Bent made the allegation on his Twitter page. The tweet read: "So we get beat by wigan and to make matters worse my mum gets racially abused by a SUNDERLAND fan. I wont stand for that."
"Sunderland are liaising with Northumbria Police to fully investigate this matter," a Sunderland spokeswoman told BBC Sport.
