"We take the conduct of our players at every level extremely seriously and will take appropriate action," A Foxes statement said

Sunday May 31st 2015

Leicester City have confirmed they have opened an investigation after three players filmed themselves racially abusing three Asian girls during a vile orgy.

The squad were in Thailand to celebrate avoiding relegation from the Premier League, and to help boost the club's fanbase in the home country of their owners, when manager Nigel Pearson's son James, 21, and pals Tom Hopper, a striker, and goalkeeper Adam Smith, 22, filmed three Thai girls committing sex acts with them in a hotel room.

The swaggering trio then shared the explicit videos with friends back in the UK in which one of the players can be heard calling a woman a “slit eye” while his mates snigger at the racist jibe.

On Sunday afternoon the club broke their silence. A Leicester spokesman said: "We take the conduct of our players at every level extremely seriously and will take appropriate action, if necessary, once the full facts of the situation have been established.

"Pending the outcome of an internal investigation, the club will make no further comment.''

Warning: This video contains racist language and scenes of a sexual nature:

Thai father and son owners Vichai and ­Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha who have ploughed millions into establishing Midlands side Leicester as a Premier League outfit after taking over the club five years ago.

A Kick It Out spokesman said: "We are aware of the allegations and have contacted Leicester City Football Club. We will await their response before commenting further."

Leicester's supporters took to Twitter to weigh in with their say on the matter and urged the club to give the three players the boot.

What a way to ruin a fantastic season in top flight.

Best thing the club can do after investigating it is to sack them.

Can't believe the main issue is racism. What about exploitation and sex tourism? Just as vile IMHO.
