After leaving incredible violence on Lamine Yamal during a live Twitch on Monday evening, Adil Rami tried to calm the game via an Instagram story on Wednesday morning. The former 2018 world champion discovered the magnitude of the outcry caused by his words and split a
“Clarification” which is mainly like an awkward retropedage. Faced with general indignation, the ex-Marseille defenseman struggles to turn off the fire he himself on.
As a reminder, Rami had attacked the Barcelona prodigy violently, certainly recognizing his “huge” talent but the attacker on the personal level with raw words. “It's been two months, humanly speaking, I can't see it anymore,” had he let go before concluding with an insult to his mother who logically caused a scandal. The former international justified this animosity by attitudes which he considers disrespectful: handshake with Ronaldo, “bling-bling” style … grievances totally overshadowed by the verbal violence used.
In his Instagram story, Rami now minimizes the scope of his insults, explaining that it was a “Metaphor certainly awkward and in no case an insult to his mother or family”. A very light defense with regard to the brutality of the chosen words. He claims to speak only of the “recent attitudes” of the 18 -year -old player and not his talent, but for most observers, the evil is done.

The tastiest in this catch -up attempt undoubtedly remains the advice provided to the young Catalan : “I still wish him to put his right head, because he has the potential to mark his time … other than with buzz like this. »»
A advice that sounds particularly badly in the mouth of the one who precisely created this buzz by an uncontrolled media outing. Rami would have visibly made better apply his own recommendations before expressing himself.
This late clarification will probably not change the case. The violence of the initial remarks has marked the spirits much more than this attempted development. If a minority was able to salute a “outspokenness” on a player whose attitude divides, the vast majority condemned a disproportionate attack against a adolescent. Adil Rami's retropedlage is definitely too late: this controversy may stick to the skin.
