Abstract

Chelsea Football Club will not be punishing Enzo Fernandez, an Argentinian football player, after he filmed himself singing an offensive song about French footballers. Fernandez has apologized to his teammates and offered to make a significant donation to an anti-discrimination charity. While the internal disciplinary process has ended, a FIFA investigation is ongoing, and the Football Association may ban Fernandez from domestic matches. The incident has received international attention, with Chelsea's response being closely scrutinized due to the large number of Black French players in the squad. [Extracted from the article]
