After posting a picture of an alleged racist song on social media following Argentina's Copa America victory, Enzo Fernandez has become the subject of a race debate.
Former Chelsea sun William Gallas has hit out at Enzo Fernandez after the recent Blue midfielder posted a picture of an alleged racist song on social media following Argentina's Copa America win.
The derogatory song about the European team that Fernandez and his global teammates signed was written in a video that contained racist and misogynistic lyrics.
Wesley Fofana, Fernandez's teammate, called the post "uninhibited racism," while Chelsea confirmed they had started an "internal punitive procedure" and the French Football Federation confirmed they would record a legitimate complaint.
Then, past Chelsea and France defender Gallas has addressed the opinions, saying that he felt them "personally" and urged FIFA and UEFA to take further action.
" To be honest, when I saw the movie that Enzo Fernandez posted, it touched me", Gallas told Gambling Zone. " I played for the European national team, and even though I retired a while ago, I felt it quite individually.
" It was like they were singing about me and all the other dark people that represent their places. The Chelsea people ' reactions to that picture are beyond me. I was really upset about it, and I put everything on my cultural media saying that it was intolerable.
" The Argentina people were singing about the French people, but for me it's not only the French people. All black basketball players who play for their countries and who play football are unpleasant.
" It would have offended Nico Williams. Lamine Yamal would have been offended by it. The people who represent England are dark and of mixed races, and it would have offended them. Racism is not suitable in football. FIFA and UEFA must take action to address the players ' actions because I have a major issue with what they did.
Gallas also criticized Argentina's Rodrigo De Paul's reply to Fernandez's protest, in which he warned supporters to" never add fuel to the fire."

" When you hear Rodrigo De Paul's feedback, it's hard to believe that we are in the month 2024," Gallas continued". Instead of expressing his disgust on social media, he may call Enzo Fernandez and talk about what transpired. I get the impression that these Argentina players do n't really understand the song's offensiveness and do n't see a problem in it.
Fernandez will collaborate with Chelsea on their pre-season trip the following week, where he will collaborate with a number of his former colleagues who have unfriended him on social media. On Wednesday, the Blues opened their journey by drawing 2-2 with Wrexham.
