Presnel Kimpembe used his social networks to draw attention to what he describes as “a genocide” in eastern Congo.

Players from the Democratic Republic of Congo drew attention to the issue during the Africa Cup of Nations, with one hand over their mouth and the other hand miming a gun to their head. Presnel Kimpembe, whose father is Congolese, also decided to join the movement to denounce what has been happening in the country for several months.

A thought ” to all people who suffer genocides”

“I also take this opportunity to send a sincere thought to all the people who are suffering genocides throughout the world, there are no lives more important than others”adds the 2018 world champion, in a message of peace.

Seriously injured in his Achilles tendon at the end of last season, Presnel Kimpembe is still treating this injury, after having undergone a new operation a few months ago. He is not expected to play again until the start of next season with PSG.
