10 - Ansu Fati

[Andresito]

Salvador Sostres at ABC wrote this after the Barca-Ferencvaros game:

"When Ansu runs he looks like a gazelle, like a young and black immigrant street vendor that you suddenly saw running down Passeig de Gr?cia (one of Barcelona's main streets), when they saw the police coming. Jungle stampedes in the heart of the city. Now that doesn't happen anymore because Ada Colau (Barcelona's mayoress) considers the police to be the criminals and not the vendors, who no longer have to run away. It's also true that without tourism, their business doesn't work."

Griezmann came to Ansu's defence on Twitter: "Ansu is a special kid and deserves respect like any human being. No to racism and no to disrespect"


Club will take legal action against the journalist.
Good to see the support from Griezmann as well.

It's insane a journalist would be stupid enough to write that today. So idiotic.

I was just reading this article. Can't believe what that guy wrote.


Well done, Antoine. Where are Messi&our other captains in this case?

 

[Porque]

Insane that that racist BS got past the editor.

Glad hes getting called out on it and hopefully he feels the wrath of it.

 

[Neeraj]

Quite a pathetic comment, and not new here in Spain. Racism is a problem here and it's very evident in Barcelona.

The two are not comparable, in my opinion. I don't think Griezmann is racist, and what he did was a stupid mistake. Could be wrong.

However, the writer clearly is.

Spain really is a haven for Franco-loving Nazi pieces of scum. Outrageous that it was published.

 

[Tekkers]

It definitely didn't get past the editor. I'm sure all their articles are peer-reviewed. They knew what they were doing by publishing that racist crap

 

[Luftstalag14]

Spain is a country where one of its parties (VOX) members and supporters openly carry on Nazi salutes out open on the street, so not surprised at all about that despicable comment from the so-called journalist.

Kudos to Griezmann and the club for supporting Ansu.

 

[Givenchy]

Not one for political correctness but damn, thats really disgraceful. Club should certainly take legal action against that journo

 

[soul24rage]

Can we not talk about politics in Fati's thread?

There's a politics thread for that very purpose.

 

[Vilarrubi]

In his apology in a post on ABC website, Sostres said in his "desire to praise the beauty of Ansu's movements and his class as a very young player, some expressions were taken as a racist contempt."



Praise the beauty of his movements by comparing him to a black street vendor running away from police...


Should get sacked imo.
