The post was quickly deleted and Onana defended his team-mate, who he said was trying to express “power and strength” as he added “this matter should go no further”.
But the Football Association has punished players in the past for making racial references on social networking sites and is understood to have sought Garnacho’s observations.
“Not (concerned about a ban) in this moment,” Ten Hag said. “We are talking with the FA.
“But what you see and I can confirm that and I want to emphasise, we are together, we are United and we have seen that in the post of Andre Onana.”
Former United striker Edinson Cavani was banned for three games and fined £100,000 in 2020 for using the Spanish phrase ‘Gracias negrito’ – which translates as…
Atletico Madrid missed the chance to strengthen their grip on a Champions League qualification place after they slipped to a 2-0 defeat at Athletic Bilbao on Saturday.
On the day Atletico saw their LaLiga crown taken by bitter rivals Real Madrid, Diego Simeone s men started sluggishly and were duly punished inside 10 minutes when Mario Hermoso turned Inaki Williams cross into his own net.
Williams, who was a constant threat, then sealed all three points in the 56th minute from the penalty spot.
Atletico remain in fourth, yet fifth-placed Real Betis can cut the gap to just a point if they overcome Getafe on Monday. Athletic, meanwhile, remain eighth.

AS Roma are interested in signing Ruben Loftus-Cheek from Chelsea in the summer transfer window, according to . New Roma head coach Jose Mourinho wants to add physicality to his midfield and has identified Loftus-Cheek as a potential target in the final days of the window.
Loftus-Cheek has been at Chelsea since 2014 and has worked with Mourinho during the Portuguese’s second spell as manager at Stamford Bridge. However, the 25-year-old England international has failed to establish himself in the first team and has been out on loan at Crystal Palace and Fulham in recent years.
Chelsea have a strong and settled midfield and won the Champions League last season. Manager Thomas Tuchel might not have any need for Loftus-Cheek, who was on loan at Fulham last season. If Chel…
MPs have recommended the creation of a new criminal offence of unauthorised entry to a football match to counter the sort of disorder seen at the Euro 2020 final at Wembley.
The Culture Media and Sport Committee has completed an inquiry into spectator safety issues following the trouble seen both at Wembley, and the problems encountered by Liverpool fans at last year’s Champions League final in Paris.
The Euro 2020 final between England and Italy saw a number of fans without tickets attempting to gain entry to Wembley either with fake tickets, through tailgating or by force.
There is currently no distinct criminal offence regarding unauthorised entry to a stadium, and the Committee has called on the Government to back a bill introduced by committee member Kevin…
Dion Charles denied Barnsley a vital first-leg advantage with a second-half equaliser to earn Bolton a 1-1 draw in their Sky Bet League One play-off semi-final.
The Northern Ireland international scored his 21st league goal just four minutes after Nicky Cadden threatened to put Barnsley in the driving seat for Friday’s return at Oakwell.
The eventual winners will meet Sheffield Wednesday or Peterborough at Wembley for the right to join Plymouth and Ipswich in the Championship next season.
Unlike Posh’s 4-0 hammering of the Owls, this second semi-final – played in front of a crowd of 23,450 – was far cagier.
Barnsley finished one place and five points in front of their hosts after the regular season. But Wanderers enjoyed a more profitable end to t…

Tottenham could face Chelsea in the fourth round of the EFL Cup, while Liverpool will meet Leicester City or Arsenal if they advance.
With the early rounds of this year s competition packed into the month of September due to the coronavirus pandemic, the fourth-round draw took place on Thursday before next week s third-round fixtures.
The premature process means Spurs and Chelsea each have work to do against Leyton Orient and Barnsley, respectively if they are to set up a mouth-watering last-16 meeting.
Former Blues manager Jose Mourinho will hope to guide Tottenham towards their first piece of silverware since 2008, when they won this competition.
With Spurs advancing in the Europa League, they are still on course to play a staggering nine matches before…
Market: Crystal Palace win
Odds: 11/10 @
Looking to secure back-to-back Premier League victories on Sunday afternoon, Crystal Palace will welcome West Ham to Selhurst Park.
Starting with the hosts, putting in a famous performance away at Premier League title chasers Liverpool last weekend as they left Anfield with a 1-0 victory, Crystal Palace will be desperate to use that display as a platform to build on. Making the decision to appoint new boss Oliver Glasner back in February, the Eagles have gained plenty of recent plaudits. Skyrocketing themselves away from a potential relegation scrap, the former Eintracht Frankfurt boss will be smelling the chance to secure back-to-back Premier League wins here. Despite winning just one of their previous four appearances a…
Trevoh Chalobah and Nicolas Jackson scored as Chelsea dealt a huge blow to Tottenham s Champions League hopes, recording a 2-0 derby win over Mauricio Pochettino s old club at Stamford Bridge.
Exactly eight years on from the memorable Battle of the Bridge between the teams, which saw nine Spurs players booked in a fiery 2-2 draw that confirmed Leicester City as champions, Chelsea inflicted more woe upon their rivals.
Spurs paid for lacklustre set-piece defending midway through the first half as Chalobah headed Conor Gallagher s free-kick home, then Jackson pounced when Cole Palmer rattled the crossbar from another dead ball 72 minutes in.
Ange Postecoglou s side were far from their free-flowing best and have now lost three straight Premier League games. They stay…
Poland will look to talisman Robert Lewandowski to improve their paltry European Championship goalscoring returns when they face Slovakia in Euro 2020 Group E.
In their 11 previous matches at the finals, Poland have never scored more than one goal, while they also have a habit of making sluggish starts.
A 1-0 win over Northern Ireland at Euro 2016 was their only win in the past nine tournament openers, with four draws and four defeats elsewhere.
Arkadiusz Milik scored the winner in Nice five year ago, but the 27-year-old forward s subsequent wretched luck with knee injuries struck again this week as he was ruled out of Poland s forthcoming campaign.
Head coach Paulo Sousa has elected not to call up a replacement, placing even more emphasis on Bayern Munic…
