The defender denounced the incident on social networks, where one of the flag-bearers had said a racist expression related to Layún’s nationality
America lost this Friday 1-0 to Pumas, in a friendly duel in Los Angeles, however the bad note of the match was that Miguel Layún received a racist insult from one of the attendees of the game between felines and eagles.
Sources close to Club America confirmed to ESPN that the assistant would have told Miguel: “I don’t speak Spanish funcking Mexican” in addition to other insults that made the player of the azulcrema box angry.
Faced with this situation, the eagles player tried to claim the referee at the end of the match but was calmed down by the rest of his teammates who took him to the dressing room to avoid a bigger problem on the pitch that could affect the career of Miguel Layún.
The defender denounced the referee’s behavior on social networks and received the support of his board of directors who will file a strong complaint against the flag bearer to eradicate this type of behavior and receive an exemplary sanction for this fact that could trigger a major problem.
Layún and the rest of his teammates are already at the concentration hotel and will return to Mexico City to start preparing for the next Liga Mx game when America meets San Luis next weekend.
