French captain Kylian Mbappé has strongly condemned Paraguayan senator Celeste Amaria for making racist remarks about him following Paraguay’s exit from the World Cup. After France defeated Paraguay 1–0 in the round of 16 through Mbappé’s penalty goal, Amaria posted on social media calling him a “Cameroonian colonial man” and a “barbarian,” even suggesting that Paraguayan players should have physically confronted him. Mbappé responded sharply, calling Amaria a hateful person unworthy of her position and saying her comments tarnished Paraguay’s image.
The French Football Federation (FFF) also denounced the senator’s statements as “vile, hateful, and completely unacceptable.” In an official statement, the FFF expressed solidarity with Mbappé, the French team, and all victims of racism. The federation announced it would file a formal complaint with the prosecutor’s office to initiate legal proceedings against Amaria.
France emphasized that such remarks insult not only an individual player but the entire nation, urging stronger international action against racism in football.
