Juventus have strongly condemned the alleged racist abuse directed at American midfielder Weston McKennie by visiting Lazio fans during Tuesday's Coppa Italia semifinal first leg. McKennie, who assisted in setting up Dusan Vlahovic for the second goal in Juventus' 2-0 victory, was subjected to discriminatory chants as he was substituted for Carlos Alcaraz in the 89th minute.
The club issued a statement acknowledging the video evidence circulating on social media, which captured the discriminatory chants aimed at McKennie. Juventus expressed their commitment to investigating the incident thoroughly and cooperating fully to identify those responsible for the unacceptable behavior.
