Speaking to journalists at his side’s training camp, Wesley Fofana defended Enzo Fernandez, asserting that he is not a racist.

Fernandez is back in the Chelsea team. Fofana said: “He [Fernandez] arrived [on Monday] and we talked with the manager. We talked together. I explained why I didn’t like the video. He [Fernandez] explained, he said sorry because he did not want to hurt French fans or anyone. He did not understand when singing it.

“I trust him because I know him. I know he is not racist. The act…I felt a little bit upset. But now, it is done. It is finished.

“Of course [I deleted my tweet] because we talked together, we play for the same club and badge and train together. Now I understand him. He understands me. Everybody is happy.

“Enzo is a big player in Argentina. I hope this has educated him a bit, because for sure, it is a different culture.

“For sure, I know Enzo. He is not racist. It’s just that the video is bad. It’s not only Enzo. It’s the Argentinian team.

“I posted [on X] this because I felt upset about the video. Enzo is in the video but if he was from another country, I would have posted the same thing. For sure, it was a big story because we play in the same team. But now it is done. I’m happy with this situation. He said sorry, I trust him and that is the most important thing.”

Fofana and Fernandez both played in Chelsea’s first pre-season win of the summer as Enzo Maresca’s side bounced back from a dismal defeat to Celtic with a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Club America.
