Everton winger Royston Drenthe has hit out at Lionel Messi, claiming that the Barcelona ace called him 'negro' on more than one occasion.
The Dutchman locked horns with the Argentina international a number of times during his spells at Real Madrid and Hercules, and admitted that he would always have problems with Messi in off-the-ball incidents.
"We played against each other a lot, and we always had problems. You know what really bothers me? That tone with which he always called me 'negro, negro'," Drenthe stated in an interview with Dutch magazine Helden.
Drenthe went on to explain that although he realises the use of the term is quite common in South America, he finds it hard to deal with, and explained that his former teammate Mahamadou Diarra had similar problems.
"I understand that it is very common in South America, but we cannot stand it. Mahamadou Diarra, my teammate at Real, would become furious when Gabriel Heinze and Gonzalo Higuain initially called him 'negro'. But they soon stopped," he told the magazine.
He added, "When I played against Barcelona with Hercules, I had the same problems with Messi again. Before the match, he gave me a hand and said, 'Hola negro'. He didn't shake my hand again after the match. I don't think he'll invite me to his birthday party."
The 25-year-old Drenthe is currently on loan at Everton, but the Premier League side is unlikely to make his stay at the club permanent.
【资讯快讯】世界足球先生梅西陷入种族歧视风波!前皇马球星,目前租借至英超埃弗顿队效力的荷兰黑人球员德伦特,5月10日在接受一家荷兰杂志采访时称,梅西曾多次辱骂他为“黑鬼”(negro)。
德伦特表示,他知道这种辱骂黑人“黑鬼”的行为在南美足球联赛中很普遍。因为之前他在皇马时的队友,阿根廷人海因策和伊瓜因也会辱骂黑人球员默罕默德·迪亚拉,使后者非常愤怒。德伦特回忆了在一场西甲联赛中,梅西在赛前跟他握手时喊他“黑鬼”,而且在赛后梅西没有再跟他握手。目前梅西本人和巴塞罗那队官方都未对德伦特的说法作出回应。
