Man United suspend European scout over racist comments on Facebook

Manchester United manager Louis Van Gaal probably has enough on his plate after another underwhelming performance at home to Southampton this weekend.
His scouts are on a mission to bring him a world class centre back this January.
One of Manchester United’s European scouts, Torben Aakjaer, has been suspended after he was found making racist comments on Facebook by the Guardian.
He described a mosque as a “conspiracy-potential prayer-shop” and wants Denmark to close its borders and put “extra personnel on every crossover and exit so all that eastern Europe dirt and sh** can be kept out.”
Aakjaer has worked for Man United since 2011, having previously been at Hamburg, and regularly visits United’s training ground to discuss potential signings. His Facebook account also contains other derogatory references to eastern Europeans, a message of support for the right-wing Dansk Folkeparti’s views about border control and a photograph of six pigs with a caption: “It’s time to deploy our secret weapons against Islamists.”
Another post appears to take pleasure from a newspaper story of someone pouring water over a beggar’s head in his base of Copenhagen. One user questions Aakjaer’s stance and is told by the scout: “You must be too integrated in the red Copenhagen mafia if you don’t think all that eastern Europe dirt and sh** needs a kick in the behind over the border. Yes, in cases like this I do generalise. This is not a hard-working Polish guy on a building site or a Czech taxi driver. This is hardcore gypsies from Romania, Bulgaria etc. And here no mercy should be shown. I don’t approve of violence but a glass of water hurts nobody.”
