UEFA have opened a disciplinary investigation against Chelsea after racist chants by fans in the Europa League match against Vidi.

It is said that Chelsea fans used anti-Semitic language in a derogatory chant about Tottenham during the 2-2 draw against Vidi last month.

UEFA's control, ethics and disciplinary body will deal with the case at its next meeting on February 28.

According to the Daily Mail, If Chelsea are found guilty, the minimum sanction the club could face includes a partial ground closure.

The reported incident in Budapest on December 13 came just days after Chelsea and police launched investigations into alleged racist abuse directed towards Manchester City's Raheem Sterling at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck condemned the actions of "a few mindless individuals at some of our recent matches", and added he "will not rest until we have eliminated all forms of discrimination from our club".

Chelsea have since launched a campaign to raise awareness and educate about anti-Semitism in football.
