The 22-year-old left-back was the target of racist insults after Paris’ victory against Brest (3-1), this Saturday evening, in Ligue 1. The Portuguese international (28 caps) had caused a penalty following a foul on Brest’s Ludovic Ajorque, in the 29th minute of play.
” Paris Saint-Germain extends its full support to its player Nuno Mendes, who was targeted by insulting and racist remarks on social networks on the sidelines of last night’s match against Stade Brestois. The club does not tolerate any form of racism, anti-Semitism or any other form of discrimination. Racial insults directed at Nuno Mendes are completely unacceptable. We strongly support Nuno and all those concerned, and we are working with the relevant authorities and associations to ensure that those responsible are held accountable for their actions. At PSG, we are committed to fostering an environment of inclusion, respect and unity both on and off the pitch. Racism has no place in football and we will continue to defend the values of tolerance and respect that define our club. “, indicates the Parisian club.
