Il Napoli used his official X account to respond to the incidents that took place last night Juan Jesus e Acerbi.
“From Naples to the world, shout it out loud: no to racism”, the club has shared a video in which Napoli players appear in the foreground, uttering phrases against racism in their respective languages. An action that follows immediately after the incident that occurred during the Inter-Napoli match, in which it is claimed that Inter defender Acerbi used the word “negro” towards Napoli defender Juan Jesus.In the video shared by Napoli, goalkeeper Meret opens with the phrase “Our eyes have seen too much”, followed by other footballers expressing their determination to fight racism. Traoré says: “our ears have heard so much”, while Lobotka adds “our mouths have said too little”, and Cajuste declares “the time for indifference is over.” This sequence of statements underlines the urgency of intensifying efforts to combat racism, as underlined by Olivera with the exhortation “let's make ourselves heard”.
The video continues with close-ups of the footballers' mouths as they utter phrases like “no fears”, “no shame”, and “shout that they have to be quiet.” Finally, the footballers affirm in chorus “No to racism”, concluding with a close-up of Osimhen's mouth that reiterates the message.
The post includes the hashtag “Keepracismout.”
