Manchester City Back Antoine Semenyo After Racism Abuse

Rabat — Manchester City forward Antoine Semenyo has revealed he is once again the target of online racial abuse this season.

After Semenyo posted a screenshot of comments from an anonymous account to his Instagram story with the caption “it’s started again,” Manchester City reportedly stepped in to offer their support.

Reflecting a distressing cycle of behavior faced by the athlete this year, the organization has mobilized to provide comprehensive guidance and resources in the wake of these hateful communications.

According to Skysports, this is not an isolated incident. While playing for his former club, Bournemouth, Semenyo was racially abused by a spectator during a match against Liverpool.

That confrontation led to legal action. Mark Moggan,47, was arrested and charged with a racially aggravated public order offense. Moggan has denied the charges, and a trial is scheduled to take place on April 22.

A Premier League spokesperson addressed the latest incident, stating: “We are appalled at the unacceptable online racist abuse targeted at Antoine Semenyo and have offered our support to the player and club.”

Semenyo, a Ghanaian international, is celebrated for his resilience and rapid ascent through the ranks of English football. His “atypical” career path rose from the sixth tier to the European elite, underscoring his determination in the face of both professional and personal challenges.
