INTER MILAN are under investigation over alleged racist chanting aimed at Blaise Matuidi during the recent Serie A clash with Juventus.
The Italian FA confirmed they are looking into the incident, which is believed to have occurred in the second half.
Inter are already under the microscope for racist chanting during their clash with Napoli on April 30.
Under Serie A rules, a certain amount of supporters had to have been involved for any sanction to be imposed, and the prosecutors have been charged with finding out what percentage of fans joined in the chanting.
A report from the Italian FA insist it appears the alleged perpetrators were tucked away in a small corner of Curva Verde in the 55th minute.
It is not the first time Matuidi has been the victim of racist chanting this season, having come in for similar treatment from Verona and Cagliari fans.

Matuidi thought he'd scored just before half-time against Inter — only to see his goal overturned following the intervention of the VAR.
Juventus eventually won an epic encounter 3-2 and Napoli's subsequent 3-0 loss at Fiorentina left them with one hand on the Serie A title.
