After the match between AC Ajaccio and Olympique de Marseille (1-0) last Saturday, the aggression of little Kenzo by Corsican supporters shocked. President Ajaccien Alain Orsoni also condemned the behavior of the attackers, before questioning the version of the victim’s family.
The aggression of little Kenzo has not finished talking. Last Saturday, the 8-year-old boy, suffering from brain cancer, was invited to attend the match between AC Ajaccio and Olympique de Marseille. But the young Marseille supporter and his father were violently attacked in their dressing room by Corsican fans. This was indeed the version told by the mother of the victim. A story now contradicted by Ajaccio President Alain Orsoni.

” Unfortunately, it would seem that the information communicated immediately after the events is only very partially consistent with reality.denounced the leader in a press release. At first, I had no reason to doubt the veracity of the statements of little Kenzo’s parents, because it seemed impossible to me that they could have wanted to use their sick little boy for Bad Buzz purposes. »
“ This is why, anxious to preserve the interests of my club and sincerely revolted, I associated myself with the demonstrations of support vis-à-vis this family and firmly condemned the facts as they had been exposed. “Explained Alain Orsoni, who had taken Kenzo to the Marseille locker room to allow him to meet his idols. A gesture that the boss of the ACA seems to regret since according to him, the family of the young boy would have lied.
Ajaccio threatens to file a complaint
” From now on, the objective elements of the investigation, and in particular the content of the video-surveillance recording, reveal that the truth is quite different and that the seriousness of the actions of certain Ajaccio supporters, moreover reprehensible, were very clearly exaggeratedhe wrote. The club therefore reserves the possibility of asserting its rights against all persons likely to have been the source of this erroneous information and those who complacently relayed it. On the Olympian side, this statement may not pass.
