The Brentford fan who was arrested on suspicion of directing racist abuse at Derby midfielder Duane Holmes has been released on bail until next month.
A Bees season-ticket holder in his 20s was arrested after Holmes said he was racially abused in the Griffin Park dugout on Saturday.
Brentford said the club utterly condemned discrimination of any kind.
A statement said: “The man in question has been accused of committing a racially-aggravated public order offence in the later stages of [the] game.
“He was identified at the time, removed from the ground and subsequently arrested.
“The club utterly condemns discrimination of any kind. It is abhorrent and has no place in society and we are determined to drive it out of Griffin Park.
“The most severe sanctions will be imposed on any individual convicted of discrimination.”
Wigan defender Nathan Byrne also received racist abuse online over the weekend and the EFL said it was “saddened, disappointed and angered to hear of further reports of alleged racism”.
