After Argentina won the Copa América, the national team players were carried away by euphoria and celebrated their success so loudly that today a large part of the football community is talking regarding them. One of the negative heroes of this story is Enzo Fernández.
A video of the Chelsea midfielder belting out chants that were quickly labeled racist has gone viral on social media. You can read more regarding it at this link . Enzo apologized for his behavior, expressed regret and assured that he opposes all forms of discrimination.
Some Chelsea players have responded to their teammate’s behaviour. Wesley Fofana made it clear that he did not like the way Enzo Fernández celebrated, while Nicolas Jackson supported the Argentine by posting a photo on social media of himself, Enzo and Marc Cucurella, as well as another photo of the Argentine and a small black boy.
The Telegraph reports that Enzo Fernández is trying to calm down the situation and, in addition to posting on Instagram, he sent a message to all his teammates in which he once once more apologised for his behaviour.
Chelsea also issued a statement and announced that they had initiated internal disciplinary proceedings once morest the midfielder, which will most likely end with a fine. Before issuing a statement, the London club carried out a thorough analysis of the recording to confirm that it was not generated by artificial intelligence. However, the player himself did not question the authenticity of the recording at any point and did not deny it.
It is not yet known how this case will end. Wesley Fofana, Christopher Nkunku, Malo Gusto and Axel Gisasi have all unfollowed Enzo Fernández on social media, so it is safe to assume that they have a grudge once morest him.
David Datro Fofana openly criticized the Chelsea and Argentina midfielder.
“The football I like is multinational. Racism in all its forms should be condemned in the strongest possible way. Such behaviour has no place in football or anywhere else. Everyone in this sport should take this fight seriously,” the Ivorian said in a video posted on Instagram.
Enzo Fernández is expected to return to training at Chelsea at the earliest at the end of July. It is not known how his cooperation with the black French will look like. This case will certainly be the first important test for Enzo Maresca.
