The family of Arsenal star Theo Walcott says they won't travel to watch him play for England at the Euros.

The Arsenal winger was included in Roy Hodgson's England squad to travel to Poland and Ukraine, but due to fears of racism in the countries, dad Don and chef brother Ashley have decided not to travel.

Ashley tweeted: "Unfortunately my dad n i have taken the decision not to travel to the Ukraine because of the fear of possible racist attacks confrontations.

"Something's aren't worth risking, but begs the question why hold a competition of this magnitude in a place that can not police itself for.

"Foreigners of any creed to feel safe, but I'll be watching every minute. Racism has no place in the modern world."
