Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez was well received as he attended a game involving his former team, River Plate.
Enzo Fernandez put on their shirt, and was given a hero’s welcome by fans of his former club.
This game marks the 23-year-old’s first public appearance after posting himself and his teammates singing a racist chant aimed at Black French players.
Fernandez has since apologised for his actions.
He wrote on Instagram: “I want to apologise sincerely for a video posted on my channel during the national team celebrations.
“The song includes highly offensive language and there is absolutely no excuse for these words.
“I stand against discrimination in all forms and apologise for getting caught up in the euphoria of our Copa America celebrations.
“That video, that moment, those words, do not reflect my beliefs or my character. I am truly sorry.”
