Police have released images of three men they believe were involved in a racist incident on a Paris Métro train.

The Metropolitan police are appealing for help to identify the trio, who they think were among a group of Chelsea supporters who pushed a black man off the train and chanted a racist song while on the way to a Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain in the French capital on Tuesday.



The appeal comes as Chelsea suspended another two people from its Stamford Bridge ground following investigations into the incident, taking the total number to five.

The three singled out by the Met in images taken from the Métro are not the same trio initially suspended by Chelsea.

The club reiterated its promise to ban for life anyone proved to have been involved in the racist altercation and is helping police in the UK and Paris.
