During FC Barcelona’s training session, a new controversy arose between footballers and influencers seeking to gain popularity on social networks. On this occasion, former Athletic defender Iñigo Martínez was the protagonist, as he confronted a young fan who was insulting him while getting out of his car at the gates of the Ciudad Deportiva.
The incident was recorded by a companion of the young man, who hoped to capture the moment with his camera. In the recording, Martínez is heard telling the fan: “The last time you called me stupid, did you hear me?” The last time you called me a fool, warning him about his insults and the young man’s defiant attitude, while the latter focuses on the camera to check if his partner is recording the scene.
These types of confrontations are not isolated in the FC Barcelona environment. Other footballers such as Ousmane Dembélé, Joao Cancelo and Gerard Piqué have also been recorded confronting fans who seek to provoke them at the doors of the training center to gain followers on social networks.
Martínez is not the only footballer who has experienced similar situations. Incidents such as the theft of Robert Lewandowski’s watch while he was signing autographs or the break-in of Samuel Umtiti’s car demonstrate the lack of respect that some fans show towards players.
