French national team captain Kylian Mbappé has fiercely condemned Paraguayan Senator Celeste Amarilla following her offensive social media remarks.
Mbappé labeled the politician “despicable” and “unworthy of office” after France eliminated Paraguay 1-0 in the World Cup Round of 16. He accused her of overshadowing the South American squad’s historic tournament efforts with “unabashed racism.”
The striker emphasized that he will not allow public figures to spread hatred and discrimination globally. Mbappé stated that Amarilla’s actions provided the worst possible image of Paraguay, a nation he praised for showing immense passion and honor throughout the competition.
