For the French goalkeeper, the authors of monkey cries against him are not the only ones who must be reprimanded. The player points the finger at their “accomplices”.
Victim of racist insults during AC Milan’s victory on the Udinese pitch (3-2), Saturday evening in Serie A, Mike Maignan chose to leave the field. When he had to play a six-meter return, the goalkeeper of the France team headed towards the sidelines in the 34th minute of play and was then followed by his teammates. The match was interrupted by the match referee four minutes later, then resumed after a five-minute interruption.
On social networks, the player trained at PSG chose to return to this dramatic episode. “It was not the player who was attacked. It’s the man. He’s the father of the family. This isn’t the first time this has happened to me. And I’m not the first this has happened to. We issued press releases, advertising campaigns, protocols and nothing has changed. Today, an entire system must take its responsibilities”wrote the last bastion of AC Milan on his X account.

“The perpetrators of these acts, because it is easy to act in a group, in the anonymity of a platform. The spectators who were in the stand, who saw everything, who heard everything but who chose to remain silent, you are complicit. The Udinese club, which only spoke of an interruption of the match, as if nothing had happened, you are complicit. The authorities and the prosecutor, with everything that is happening, if you do nothing, YOU WILL ALSO BE COMPLICATED”, he continues in his press release. In 2021, during a match against Juventus, Maignan had already experienced a similar scenario.
