Zlatan Ibrahimovic is criticized in Italy after his actions in a video together with the video creator and internet sensation “IShowSpeed”.
It was on Monday that “Speed”, whose real name is Darren Watkins Jr, visited AC Milan. He was then joined by Ibrahimovic.
During the meeting, which was filmed, Darren Watkins Jr. exclaimed “anyone who moves is gay”, a silence game that spread like a trend on social media. Both he and “Ibra” sat still for several minutes, before Zlatan finally “won”.
Several Italian media, including the major daily newspaper La Repubblica, report that the “game” generated a lot of angry comments on social media, criticizing Ibrahimovic’s actions.
“Zlatan plays and it is controversial,” writes La Repubblica, which believes that it contributes to homophobia.
Ibrahimovic now works as an advisor to AC Milan’s owner Redbird Capital.
