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...
Surely Onana can just say “oh nah it’s fine he meant nothing by it” and the FA will drop it
Not really, what if there’s a serious case of racism but the player is forced to say that he’s OK with it due to the pressure from the club
Just a general thought
