After all the scandal that arose, the Curepí baseball player Enzo Fernández apologized for the song against the French. Below is what he posted on his social networks:
“I want to sincerely apologize for a video posted on my Instagram during the National Team celebrations.
The song includes some very offensive language and there is absolutely no excuse for these words.
I oppose discrimination in all its forms and I apologize for getting caught up in the euphoria of our Copa America celebrations.
That video, that moment, those words, do not reflect my beliefs or my character.
I’m really sorry”.
What happened?
In the video, which was recorded on the bus when the champion team was returning to the hotel in Miami, a teammate warns Enzo to stop transmitting, but before the images are interrupted, you can clearly hear “Listen, spread the word. They are playing in France…”. Aware of the viralization of the images, the FFF decided to report it to FIFA and will submit the video as evidence.
On Tuesday it was revealed that the French Football Federation will file a lawsuit against the AFA for chants it considers racist during the celebration of the Argentine players winning the Copa America. And shortly after, there was a rather strong recrimination against Enzo Fernández from his French teammates at Chelsea for homophobia and racism.
