Police Scotland are liaising with Rangers as they investigate a video of supporters targeting Celtic striker Kyogo Furuhashi with racist abuse.

Footage surfaced on Sunday of fans singing offensive songs and making offensive gestures about the Japan international.

It was believed to have been taken on a bus heading to their clash with Ross County.

The Ibrox club have condemned the behaviour and launched their own investigation to find those involved.

Celtic have also hit out at the shocking video and are vowing to give Kyogo their full support.

A Police Scotland Spokesperson said: "Police Scotland is aware of a video circulating on social media and officers are liaising with the club to make relevant enquiries."
