Wednesday, May 18, in Do not touch My TV, Cyril Hanouna received the president of the French Rugby Federation, Bernard Laporte and the football consultant, Gilles Favard to talk about the affair which has shaken football for several days. Indeed, on Saturday May 15, Paris-Saint-Germain traveled to Montpellier on behalf of the 37th day of Ligue 1. A meeting won by the club from the capital (4-0), in which did not participate Idrissa Gueye. The midfielder was in the group and fit for this match but did not wish to wear a jersey with the flocked number in the rainbow colors of the LGBT community, as part of the world day against homophobia.
And since heated debates have emerged on the web but also on the set of TPMP. “I support him (…) I agree with him in the name of his freedom of conscience, expression, religion (…) there is hatred against him, I find that unacceptable”defended Gilles Verdez before taking full face. “You really are a huge asshole”dropped Matthieu Delormeau very upset. “It’s going too far. Homophobia is not an opinion, it’s a crime. It’s a shame”, he continued before making the decision not to speak to his colleague in the dressing rooms. “You don’t understand anything (…) It’s a scandal”.
But he is not the only one to support the Senegalese player. “He did nothing forbidden, outlaw and he is being lynched on social networks, I find it unfair”, said Guillaume Genton. Géraldine Maillet, in agreement with Matthieu Delormeau, strongly criticized the ex-journalist of the Parisian. “You’re puking”. The TPMP People presenter went one better, saying: “You’re unbearable, you’re homophobic”. Words that made Cyril Hanouna react: “Gilles Verdez, homophobic? I’ve never heard such bullshit”.
