Queens Park Rangers owner Tony Fernandes insists that racism within English football is not rife.

Queens Park Rangers owner Tony Fernandes believes that English football does not have a problem with racism.

The Football Association is currently investigating claims that John Terry racially abused QPR's Anton Ferdinand, allegations that the England captain has denied.

However, Fernandes insists that incidents of racism within the English game are rare occurrences.

"Coming from a foreign country, I don't feel there is much racism in football," Fernandes told BBC Radio Five Live.

"English football should be proud of what we've achieved."

The FA are expected to reveals their findings on the Terry case later this week.
