Napoli pull out of ‘token’ anti-racism initiatives after InterMilan’s Acerbi cleared of racial abuse
March 27 – Inter Milan defender Francesco Acerbi has been cleared of a charge of racially insulting Napoli’s Juan Jesus in a Serie A game because there wasn’t enough proof, an Italian football league judge has ruled.
Judge Gerardo Mastrandrea said an investigation had failed to reach “the minimum level of reasonable certainty as to the discriminatory content of the offence.”
The alleged incident on March 17 was revealed when Jesus told the referee Acerbi directed a racial slur at him.
