AC Milan on Monday expressed
support for Franck Kessié after the Ivory Coast was the target
of flak from rival fans in a 1-0 win at Hellas Verona on Sunday.
"We want to thank all the clubs and football fans who showed
their support for Franck Kessié," Milan said via Twitter.
"Throughout our history, we've always honoured the values of
Sport.
"That's why we condemn, once again, all forms of racism and
discrimination: football should not divide but unite people".
Hellas Verona said Monday that their fans did not racially
abuse Kessié, arguing they just whistled at him.
