The Chelsea defender was accused by the Loftus Road man of insulting him due to his race in the 1-0 victory for Rangers on 23rd October, and many involved in the game have been calling for action against the England international.
Despite maintaining his innocence, Terry is under investigation by the FA currently, and Ferdinand has confirmed that he has given evidence against the veteran central defender.
“Today (Monday 31st October 2011) I finalised my statement with the Football Association with regards to the incident that occurred last Sunday at Loftus Road in our Barclays Premier League fixture against Chelsea,” read Ferdinand’s statement.
“I have very strong feelings on the matter, but in the interests of fairness and not wishing to prejudice what I am sure will be a very thorough inquiry by the FA, this will be my last comment on the subject until the enquiry is concluded.
“I would like to thank the club, Tony Fernandes, Amit Bhatia, Neil Warnock, the supporters and my fellow professionals for their unwavering support,” he concluded.
The FA will review Ferdinand’s story of events, and Terry can expect to be questioned over the incident in the not too distant future.
