West Ham United condemns chants heard during its match at Burnley last weekend involving winger Manor Solomon, urging fans to stop what the club describes as offensive and divisive language.
The BBC reports West Ham asks supporters to refrain from an “anti-Palestine” chant directed at Solomon. The Athletic adds that Solomon has faced similar chants previously when playing for Leeds United in 2025, a situation that West Yorkshire club condemned at the time.
While both outlets agree on the club’s message condemning the chanting, they frame the issue through slightly different descriptions: BBC focuses on the chant’s political targeting, whereas The Athletic also highlights the history of similar incidents involving Solomon at an earlier club. Both accounts present the condemnation as West Ham’s attempt to address fan behaviour following the event at Burnley.
