Chelsea defender Wesley Fofana has publicly condemned a video posted by his teammate Enzo Fernandez, calling it 'uninhibited racism.'

The controversial video, shared on Fernandez's Instagram, featured Argentina squad members singing a song with offensive language about French players. The video was captured after Argentina's victory over Colombia in the Copa America final.

Fernandez issued an apology, stating that the words in the song did not reflect his beliefs or character. However, the French Football Federation deemed the video as containing 'racist and discriminatory' content and plans to file a complaint with FIFA.

Fofana expressed his dismay on social media platform X, while Chelsea launched an investigation. The video incident follows prior racial abuse faced by France's Kylian Mbappe and other African-descended players after the 2022 World Cup final.
