Italian football pundit suspended over racist comments

[.Williamson. 82,191]

A pundit on Italian TV was immediately suspended following racist comments he made on-air regarding Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku.

TopCalcio24's Luciano Passirani was suspended shortly after making a comment directed at Lukaku on Sunday.

Speaking on the Qui Studio a Voi Stadio show, Passirani started off by saying, "I don't see any other player in Italy now like Lukaku. [...] I really like him," before adding, "the only way to stop him is to say, Here are ten bananas that you can eat."

Lukaku was targeted with monkey chants by Cagliari fans this month.

Offering food to a player during a game is insane.

Italian football is fucked. Inter's ultra group were defending the Cagliari fans last month as well saying that monkey chants towards a black player aren't racist.

Mental.

Verona fans were making monkey chants at Kessie of Milan at the weekend also.

 

Club have come out defending the club and it's fans saying they are very tolerant and wouldn't do such things. ( it was clear monkey chants, even went on  during halftime.)

Tedious as fuck mate. Some folk on this forum are obsessed with it.

You have to wonder what went through Lukaku's head when he's read that statement. His own fans actually defending a rival teams fans for directing monkey chants at him. Bizarre.

Used to love watching it when I was a wee guy but not so much nowadays. Back in the days of Football Italia on channel 4 when it was the best league in the world imo
