Argentina midfielder Enzo Fernandez is in trouble after he was filmed singing a song that has been described as racist during a Copa America victory celebration.

Fernandez entered "live" on social networks from the bus full of Argentine football players, at the moment when he started singing a song that has become famous in Argentina among the local fans.

The song mocks the French team for the high number of footballers of African origin.

Part of the text:

"They play with France but they are from Angola. How nice, that *** Mbappe is running. His mother is Nigerian, his father Cameroonian, but in the documents: "French nationality".

The French football federation reacted indignantly saying that it will take the footballer to the highest instances to face justice.

While Fernandez himself issued a statement expressing regret, and says that racism was not his intention.

Also, his team, Chelsea, issued another statement saying that it has already started internal investigations to clarify the incident and take measures.
