Four Paris Saint-Germain players may face disciplinary action for reportedly engaging in an offensive chant directed at Marseille fans following their Classique victory on Sunday.
Ousmane Dembele, Randal Kolo Muani, Achraf Hakimi, and Layvin Kurzawa are alleged to have shouted derogatory remarks while celebrating their 4-0 win, saying, "Marseillais, go f*ck your mothers."
A video shared on social media by Free Ligue 1 shows the four players chanting and jumping, while the rest of the PSG squad abstained from joining in.
In addition, PSG fans could also be subject to sanctions for alleged homophobic chants directed at the visiting team during the match.
According to L'Equipe, this offensive song persisted for nearly 15 minutes and falls within the French Football Association's definition of discriminatory behaviour.
Olivier Klein, the inter-ministerial delegate for the fight against racism, anti-Semitism, and anti-LGBT hatred (DILCRAH), criticised both PSG and the FA for these incidents.
In a social media post, Klein said he was "very shocked by the unbearable homophobic chants heard at the Parc des Princes during [the game]".
The government official said he will enter into discussions with the club and the French FA and plans to take legal action if possible.
The minister of sports and the Olympics, Amelie Oudea-Castea, later revealed that she has coordinated France's discriminatory commission, who are expected to open an investigation into the chants.
She called on the club to identify specific perpetrators within the group and 'remove them from the stadiums'.
PSG released a statement in response, pledging to "step up its prevention work in the fight against homophobia, and will be meeting all its partners on this vital issue in the coming days".
