Patrice Evra, the Franco-Capeverdean footballer, has spoken out against racism, expressing his belief that racism will persist. He emphasized the need for UEFA to take action against this issue and condemned the ignorance of those who engage in racist behavior. Evra referenced Yaya Touré’s recent experience with racist chants during a Champions League match between Manchester City and CSKA Moscow. Yaya Touré has been actively addressing and denouncing racism in football, calling for action from authorities. Evra himself has been a victim of racist acts in the past, notably during a Premier League match between Manchester United and Liverpool in 2011. The fight against racism in football remains an ongoing challenge.
