This Sunday, Inter Milan celebrated their 20th Italian championship title as it should be after a victory in the Madonnina derby against AC Milan. But while 300,000 supporters were present in the streets of Lombardy, a controversy around Denzel Dumfries grew. Having a dispute with Théo Hernandez, the French left defender of the Rossoneri, the Dutch piston brandished a banner inspired by GTA V where we see Franklin, with the face of Dumfries, holding on a leash his rottweiler, Chop, with the face of Théo Hernandez. Under a sanction from the Transalpine disciplinary prosecution, the 28-year-old player backpedaled this Monday on Instagram.

Indeed, the former PSV apologized for his provocation: “Yesterday was the best day for me, all the players and everyone at the club. thank you so much to the fans who came to the parade in their thousands. It was a pleasure to celebrate with you all, it meant so much to the team. During the parade, I held a banner that displayed an inappropriate image. I am a player who loves rivalry in football, it is a crucial part of any game. I realize that holding the banner was an error in judgment on my part and not smart at all. Let’s move on to focus on what has been the most incredible season for Inter Milan. thank you once again for all your support this season, and for yesterday’s celebrations, I will never forget them.» As a reminder, the two players will face each other again on June 21 during the Euro group stage meeting between the Blues and the Oranje.
