Since Sunday, Lucas Chevalier has faced controversy after “liking” a controversial publication on Instagram. Fortunately for him, the Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper can count on certain support.
This is particularly the case of Karim Boukrouh, his former coach at Marck (2011-2012) then at Losc. The current coach of the Troyes goalkeepers (Ligue 2) ensures in the columns of Parisian that the last bastion of the capital club is “a real good guy, healthy, kind, well-mannered”.
“What I find disturbing in this story is that it pleases some people, that they take advantage of this to add fuel to the fire. It seems a bit like a witch hunt and it’s disturbing. I hope he shuts up his detractors,” continues Karim Boukrouh.
Knight, Eric Ciotti to the rescue
Lucas Chevalier had previously seen Éric Ciotti come to his defense. “I give my full support to the goalkeeper of the French team Lucas Chevalier, victim of racist insults for having liked a publication calling for a vote for RN against LFI. Racism is unbearable, including anti-white racism! »wrote the former president of the Les Républicains party on social networks.
Also criticized for his performances under the colors of PSG, the native of Calais could experience his first selection for the French team in the coming days. Indeed, according to The Teamif the Blues validate their ticket for the 2026 World Cup on Thursday against Ukraine, he could be aligned by Didier Deschamps on Sunday in Azerbaijan.
