Chelsea have offered counselling to teenage winger Callum Hudson-Odoi after he was subjected to racist abuse twice in 11 days.
The club reported that the 18-year-old heard monkey chants during Chelsea's Europa League win at Dynamo Kiev on 14 March, which Uefa is now investigating.
Callum Hudson-Odoi was one of several England players abused during the 5-1 win over Montenegro on Monday.
England boss Gareth Southgate has also been in touch with the player.
After the Montenegro win, which was Callum Hudson-Odoi's full England debut, the winger described the abuse (also targeting Danny Rose and Raheem Sterling) as "unacceptable".
The youngster is understood to be faring well since then but will be offered a range of support if he needs it.
