Sophia, the German’s wife, shared two direct messages she had received on Instagram on her story.
In an effort to find the perpetrators, Arsenal is collaborating with a specialised data firm after reporting the abuse to the police.
“For anyone to think it’s okay to write something like this is so shocking to me. I hope you are so ashamed of yourself,” she wrote as she shared one of the direct messages.
On another she added: “I’m not sure what to even say but please guys, be more respectful. We are better than this.”
