“The samurai he cut it for us twice!”, launches a first person, before others around him laugh and a last uses the term of “sushi”, without his sentence being completely audible. The Trojan club had access to the images shot by the broadcaster Amazon Prime and “strongly condemns any form of racism or xenophobia “. The Trojan club also announces that it will support Hyun-Jun Suk “in the actions he wishes to undertake”. For its part, Olympique de Marseille has not yet reacted.
