Alejandro Garnacho is at risk of a Football Association ban over a social media post regarding Manchester United team-mate Andre Onana.
Garnacho, 19, posted a celebratory post on Twitter following Manchester United’s 1-0 Champions League win over FC Copenhagen on Tuesday night where Onana saved a stoppage time penalty to ensure victory.
The Argentina international included two gorilla emojis in the since deleted post alongside a picture of Onana, team-mates and himself celebrating.
The FA are aware of the post in question and have sought Garnacho’s observations on it.
Manchester United...
Yeah, I don’t associate gorillas with strength/power/dominance. I associate them with black people, so it’s racist regardless of the obvious context. You really can’t make this shit up anymore.
