Five Chelsea fans who were involved in last month's racially-motivated attack on the Paris Metro face police banning orders from football.
A group of Blues supporters prevented a black man from boarding a train prior to their Champions League last-16 first leg with Paris Saint-Germain on February 17.
The men were also filmed directing racist chants at the victim, with Chelsea describing the incident as "abhorrent" and subsequently banning three people from Stamford Bridge.
A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police said: "On Tuesday March 10 and Wednesday March 11, the Metropolitan Police Service served summonses on five men involved in incidents on the Paris Metro before the Paris Saint-Germain vs. Chelsea Champions League fixture on Tuesday February 17.
"They have been summonsed to appear at Waltham Forest Magistrates' Court on Wednesday March 25 regarding a police application for football banning orders."
The return leg of the Champions League tie takes place in London this evening, with the score at 1-1.
