After feasting in Orléans (4-1), Kylian Mbappé sent a message on X to support Mike Maignan. The goalkeeper, victim of racist insults and racist cries, left the pitch, accompanied by his teammates, for several minutes against Udinese.
“You are very far from being alone Mike Maignan. We are all with you. Still the same problems and still NO solution. Enough is enough !!!!!!!!!!!! », Wrote the double scorer in the Coupe de France. After four minutes, the match resumed at the request of the referee (3-2). The FFF also provided its support to the goalkeeper, condemning “with the greatest firmness any act of racism. »
Several other players from the France team posted messages of support: “All together in this fight,” launched Real Madrid midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni. “We’re together Mike. No to racism ! “, wrote Atlético de Madrid striker Antoine Griezmann.
FIFA President Gianni Infantino also condemned the insults against Maignan and called for the perpetrators of racist insults to be banned from all stadiums, as well as to introduce an “automatic forfeit” sanction for clubs whose fans commit these misdeeds, while similar incidents occurred in England on Saturday.
