The coach of the France team is up in arms after the deplorable attacks suffered by one of his players this weekend.

A real scandal. Once again, racism has struck in football, injuring AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan on Saturday during a trip to Udine. The meeting may have been interrupted a short time after the Rossoneri returned to the locker room, but the damage, atrocious and intolerable, has been done. Much to the chagrin of Didier Deschamps who spoke on the subject this Sunday.

I give all my support to Mike Maignansays the national coach, who made Mike Maignan his number one goalkeeper after the international retirement of Hugo Lloris. What our goalkeeper experienced yesterday in Udine is completely unacceptable. I completely understand his decision to leave the field. » And added: “ Racist insults are unacceptable and must be condemned in the strongest possible terms. Racism has no place anywhere and must be fought relentlessly. »

Mbappé also angry

Same indignation among Philippe Diallo, the president of the French Football Federation (FFF). “ I condemn with the greatest firmness the racist insults suffered by Mike Maignantrumpets the boss of French football. Mike Magnan knows that he can count on the support and solidarity of the FFF in this fight that we must win. » Earlier in the day, Blues captain Kylian Mbappé, among others, also expressed his support: “ You are very far from being alone Mike Maignan. We are all with you. Still the same problems and still no solution. »
