Savills has confirmed it has terminated the contract of an employee alleged to have sent a racist tweet after the Euro 2020 final.
The agency had suspended the member of staff in July after a tweet, since deleted, was posted using a racial slur to attack players following England’s defeat in the final. The employee was arrested days later.
A statement from Savills reads: “We can confirm that following a period of suspension, the contract of an employee alleged to have sent a racist tweet from a personal social media account post the Euro 2020 final has been terminated and the employee has left the business.
“We understand that Greater Manchester Police investigations continue and are therefore unable to comment further at this time.”
