Cagliari president denies racist abuse claims

Cagliari president Tommaso Giulini said any abuse aimed at Juventus forward Moise Kean on Tuesday has nothing to do with the player’s race.

Kean, 19, celebrated in front of the Cagliari fans after sealing Juve’s 2-0 victory in the 85th minute in the Serie A, with claims that the fans hurled racial abuse at the youngster.

Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri spoke out against the acts after the match, while Leonardo Bonucci claimed the blame was “50-50” between Kean and Cagliari fans .

But Giulini says the club’s fans were not attacking Kean because of his race and would have reacted the same way had club and Italy team-mate Federico Bernardeschi scored.

“If Bernardeschi had celebrated like that, the same thing would have happened,” he told Sky Sport Italia.
