The racist chant sung by Enzo Fernandez a few days ago with the Argentina players could well mean the end of the midfielder’s adventure at Chelsea.
A few hours after Argentina’s victory in the Copa America final, Enzo Fernandez allowed his followers on social networks to follow him live from the bus. Internet users were able to see the midfielder singing a racist chant with his teammates. Probably realizing that he was crossing the line, Enzo Fernandez abruptly stopped his live broadcast. But the damage was done and the controversy broke out. The player is now in turmoil.
After the French Football Federation, whose players were directly targeted by the chant in question, filed a complaint, Chelsea decided to take matters into their own hands. The Premier League club thus indicated that it was opening disciplinary proceedings against its player. But the English club could well be forced to go much further. In any case, this is the opinion of a former member of the club, Tony Cascarino, who mentioned the possibility of seeing Fernandez pushed towards the exit.
Complicated forgiveness
Invited to speak on the subject at the microphone of talkSPORTthe former striker put himself in the shoes of the Argentinian’s teammates in the London dressing room. It’s going to be tough. If we were in the era when I was playing at Chelsea in the 90s, I’m not sure the dressing room would agree with what Enzo Fernandez has done. It’s going to be tough to deal with. I think Chelsea are going to have a major decision to make on whether or not they keep Enzo Fernandez. »
For Tony Cascarino, ” having players upset with another member of the dressing room, I’m not sure many of them will be comfortable with what happened ” And the observer concludes: ” Some players aren’t going to want to let it go or put their own spin on it. He’s going to have to apologize face-to-face to the team and then maybe there’ll be some forgiveness. »
