Chelsea are unlikely to face any disciplinary action over alleged racist chants from Blues supporters during the side's Champions League match against Genk.

Chelsea are unlikely to face action from UEFA after the delegate's and referee's reports did not include claims of racist chanting from the Blues supporters in the Champions League tie against Genk last night.

The Premier League club have condemned offensive chants regarding the racism row between John Terry and Anton Ferdinand that could be heard during last night's 1-1 draw with Genk.

The Blues following are understood to have been singing, "Anton Ferdinand, you know what you are" in a bid to back their club captain as he undergoes investigation by the Football Association and the Metropolitan Police over alleged racist remarks towards the Queens Park Rangers defender.

The European governing body could still enforce disciplinary action if any other evidence is put forward regarding the crowd chants.

If any allegations are deemed true then the club could be fined or be forced to play games behind closed doors.
