Romelu Lukaku has called on Manchester United fans to stop singing a racist chant about him.

The controversial song, which makes reference to the striker’s penis, has been widely condemned.

Kick It Out, the football equality and inclusion organisation, contacted Manchester United about the chant which they deem ’offensive and discriminatory’.

‘Racist stereotypes are never acceptable in football or wider society, irrespective of any intention to show support for a player,’ said a spokesperson for the organisation

In a tweet on Manchester United’s official Twitter profile, Lukaku was quoted asking fans to ‘move on’ from the song.

Manchester United fans have quickly warmed to Lukaku who has made a blistering start to his career following his £75million switch from Everton.
