Agüero Racism Row: Streamer Joke & Fallout

After Enzo Fernandez’s racist song, Sergio Agüero’s crazy laugh at a racist joke. And each time, the same innuendoes. Invited in a live with several Argentine streamers, the former Manchester City striker burst out laughing when one of the participants spoke of a match of “the first team against the reserve team” while talking about the future France-Senegal match at the 2026 World Cup (the two nations were drawn in the same group).

These comments are necessarily reminiscent of those in the affair of the racist chant sung by players of the Argentina team, filmed by Enzo Fernandez after their victory at the Copa America, targeting the players of the France team.

“They play for France but come from Angola, they will run well, they like to fuck trans people. Their mother is Nigerian, their father is Cambodian but on the passport: French,” several Albiceleste players sang in particular.
