In a statement, the Lionesses said it was “clear we and football need to find another way to tackle racism”, with Carter saying she had stepped away from social media following the quarter-final against Sweden.
“Whilst I feel every fan is entitled to their opinion on performance and result I don’t agree or think it’s ok to target someone’s appearance or race.”
“As soon as we were made aware of the racist abuse Jess received, we immediately contacted UK police,” Bullingham confirmed.
“Regrettably, this is not the first time this has happened to an England player, so we had measures in place to allow us to respond quickly and where possible provide information to support any potential police action.
Carter’s club, the US-based Gotham FC, said they were “heartbroken and outraged” by the abuse.
“At Gotham, we believe in a culture of mutual respect and remain committed to building a game — and a community — where everyone feels safe, respected and celebrated.
There is no place for racism in our sport. We stand with Jess, and we deeply appreciate the support for Jess from the Lionesses and England’s Football Association as they compete at the Uefa Women’s Championship.”
