Enzo Fernandez and the Argentinian National Team are under fire for good reason Tuesday after a social media video surfaced of Fernandez and the rest of the squad partaking in a racist and homophobic chant in the wake of their Copa America win Sunday night.
The chant dates back to Argentina’s 2022 World Cup win over France and targets France’s POC players claiming they’re all from Angola while also chanting ‘they f*** transvestites like f***ing Mbappe‘ which is an apparent reference to French striker Kylian Mbappe’s previously reported romance with transgender model Ines Rau.
The video posted on Instagram by Fernandez seems to show the Argentinian team referencing at least the Angolan portion of the chant before it gets cut off.
Sources close to the French Football Federation told the AFP on Tuesday that the FFF plans to contact the Argentinian Football Federation over the matter and will also forward the complaint to FIFA.
