During the celebration of their Copa America victory, Argentine national team players sang a racist song about France. The French Football Federation has already lodged a complaint with FIFA.

Additionally, as reported by Kieran Gill of the Daily Mail, the situation has affected Chelsea. The club has launched an internal investigation into this scandal since one of the participants is midfielder Enzo Fernandez.

"I am aware that Chelsea has begun an investigation in connection with the controversial video of Enzo Fernandez singing a song after winning the Copa America. The club is taking this matter very seriously and will act accordingly," the journalist stated.

Chelsea defender Wesley Fofana posted a video of the song's performance and accused the participants of racism. Following the incident, several Chelsea players, including Axel Disasi, Wesley Fofana, Malo Gusto, Christopher Nkunku, Lesley Ugochukwu, Malang Sarr, and Romeo Lavia, unfollowed Enzo Fernandez.

Journalist Rahman Osman also notes that Chelsea's management will not make any public comments regarding the Enzo Fernandez scandal until their internal investigation, which is already underway, is concluded.
