Racial abuse in Italian stadiums ‘is not real racism’, says Roma boss Claudio Ranieri

Racial abuse in Italian stadiums ‘is not real racism’, according to Roma boss Claudio Ranieri.

Napoli’s Kalidou Koulibaly and Juventus’ Moise Kean have been victims of racism this season with both players being subjected to monkey chants.

On the international stage, England boss Gareth Southgate was saddened by racial abuse aimed at Danny Rose and Raheem Sterling during a 5-1 win at Montenegro in March.

And despite the incidents in Serie A during the season, Ranieri told La Gazzetta dello Sport: “The racism you hear in stadiums is just something very silly to mock, in a very, very stupid way, a lad whose skin colour is not as light.

“It’s silliness. I don’t think there is real racism in stadiums, or at least it’s only a very small part of it.”

Ranieri was named Roma boss until the end of the season in March after being sacked by Fulham.

He added: “I’ve had a lot of fun.

“Coaching the squad of the town where you were born, where you cheered them on from the stands, in the Curva, in away games, it’s different to anything else.”
