World Rugby Issue Statement Over Alleged Racist Comments Made By Mbonambi

Thursday, 26 October 2023 09:05

By Hannah Kelly

They say the matter is closed unless new evidence comes to light

World Rugby has issued a statement this morning to declare there is 'insufficient evidence' to charge South African player Bongi Mbonambi following allegations by England's Tom Curry that Mbonambi used 'discriminatory language' towards him during last Saturday's semi final. 

They add that Curry made the allegations in 'good faith'. 

The body says it's 'concerned' over the social media abuse both players have received this week.
