As Roma, Felix Afena: “Banana joke? It wasn’t racist” – Video

The banana joke during the delivery of Mourinho’s gift? Romanist Felix Afena-Gyan reassures everyone that “I did not feel in any way offended by the background commentary in the video, and I sincerely believe that there was no racist intent”. Thus, in a story on Instagram, the Giallorossi closes the “case” that broke out after the video on the shoes that, as promised, were given to him by the Roma coach Josè Mourinho after the attacker’s brace at Genoa. As the player unwraps the gift, someone is heard saying “there are bananas in it, Felix”. “Since the first day I arrived here, I felt welcomed into the family by everyone, who joked with me as they do with everyone else – explains Felix-. Since they see that I eat a lot of bananas, it has become something about which from time to time we laugh a lot and I think that comment is another example in this sense. I feel at home here in Rome, I am grateful for the support I have received from everyone in Trigoria and I don’t like to think that people can get the wrong ideas. Thanks to be worried but now let’s focus on the next match “, concludes the young Roma forward. # Mourinho gave Felix #AfenaGyan the new pair of shoes that he was promised after scoring against # Genoa # MourinhoEffect pic.twitter.com/ccRJ92TS8L— This Way Network: A Calcio Podcast (@RTWCalcio) November 22, 2021
