Fiorentina defends Moise Kean, victim of racist insults on social networks

The Fiorentina striker Moise Kean was the victim of racist insults on social networks after the defeat of his team against Inter Milan (2-1) on Monday evening. The Florentin club reacted quickly by expressing its support for Kean and by reporting the perpetrators of these acts to the competent authorities. Several other Italian clubs, including Inter Milan, Lazio Rome, AC Milan and Juventus, have also condemned these insults.

This is not the first time that Moise Kean has faced racist incidents. In 2019 in particular, he had already been the victim of racist remarks in a match in Cagliari. Currently, Kean is the second top scorer in Serie A with 15 goals, behind Mateo Retagui from Atalanta Bergame, and has a nice start to the season.
