An official from the Ukrainian club revealed the proposal after claims of racial abuse during a match against Chelsea last week.
Champions League football club Dynamo Kiev are considering segregating fans based on the colour of their skin.
The Ukrainian club has been involved in two high profile incidences of racial abuse in European competition this year, and its "Ultras Faction" often clashes with police and with fans of rival clubs.

The club hosted Premier League side Chelsea in the Champions League group stage last week, where footage appeared to show four black Kiev fans being racially abused by some of the club's white fans.
Dynamo Kiev's stadium director, Volodimir Spilchenko, has responded to the incident by suggesting non-white fans might be segregated from the rest of the club's crowd in order to try and avoid such incidents.
"We are trying, maybe, to make a separate sector [for black fans] in an attempt to avoid racism," he said in a press conference.
His remark came in response to a question from a journalist about the latest controversy surrounding the club.
But racism in Ukrainian football is not just limited to the stands. Some black fans have complained of suffering abuse around the stadium, and in Kiev's city centre.
