The former Arsenal and English striker Ian Wright isn’t one bit happy with how the African Cup of Nations is being represented by the media. The 50 year old went on to say;

“The coverage is completely tinged with racism. We played our Euro’s across 10 countries in the middle of a pandemic, there’s no issue. But, Cameroon, a single country, hosting a tournament is a problem.”

“There are players getting asked if they will be honouring the call-ups to their national teams. Imagine if that was an England player representing the Three Lions. Can you imagine the furore?”

Respect @IanWright0 🙏🏿 There’s no greater honour for a sportsperson than representing your country. The Africa Cup of Nations is a celebration of African pride, and next week’s AFCON will once more prove the undeniable greatness of African Players. pic.twitter.com/HpvekGwBdH
