Gianluca Prestianni allegedly called Vinicius a monkey
Arsenal and French legend, Thierry Henry has challenged Benfica winger, Gianluca Prestianni to come out and tell the world what he said to Vinicius Jnr.
According to Henry, he wants to know what exactly the Argentina winger said to the Brazilian because he covered his mouth while making the remark to Vinicius Jnr.
“Lets see how big of a man Prestianni is, tell us what you said. You must have said something because you can’t go to Mbappe and say you didn’t say anything.”
“If you didn’t say anything why did you cover your mouth? or you have a cold?” Henry said while commenting on the issue on CBS Sports.
Thierry Henry has criticized José Mourinho for allegedly blaming the reported racial abuse directed at Vinícius Júnior on the Brazilian’s goal celebrations.
Henry argued that no player’s celebration can justify racist remarks, insisting that responsibility lies solely with those who engage in abuse.
“His goal didn’t stop the game but the alleged racist abuse stopped the game and that is what we want to know what Prestianni said. Vini should celebrate the way he wants when he scores.”
