Enzo Fernandez, the Argentine midfielder, has sparked outrage by posting a video of himself and his teammates singing a racist song about French players. The video has been widely condemned, including by the French Football Federation.

The song, which was sung on the team bus following Argentina’s victory in Florida, contains racist and discriminatory language. It is not clear who else was involved in the chanting, but a number of players were present on the bus.

Chelsea midfielder Wesley Fofana has accused Fernandez of “uninhibited racism” and Nicolas Jackson has defended his teammate. The club has confirmed that it is investigating the incident.

The video has caused a split in the Chelsea dressing room, with some players unfollowing Fernandez on Instagram. Sources close to the players have revealed that Chelsea’s French contingent are furious with Fernandez.

Fernandez has since apologized for his actions, claiming that he was “caught up in the euphoria” of the team’s celebrations. He stated that the song “includes highly offensive language and there is absolutely no excuse for these words.”

Chelsea has released a statement saying that it finds all forms of discriminatory behavior “completely unacceptable” and will use the incident as an opportunity to educate.

The French Football Federation has vowed to take legal action with a complaint to FIFA, branding the footage “racist and discriminatory”.
