On Instagram, the former left-back violently criticized the president of the French Federation, who explained 15 days ago that racism in football did not exist "or little".

"I have lost all my respect for you," he shouts, before recounting the racism to which he believes the players of the France team. 

Known for his outspokenness and his often offbeat videos on social networks, Patrice Evra on Tuesday evening pushed a huge rant on racism in French football, two weeks after the controversial remarks of the president of the French Federation Noël Le Graët who said that racism in sport and football did not exist "or little".

In a video posted on his Instagram account, the former Manchester United player and French international blasted this reaction and assured that the players of the France team were regularly victims of racism.

"Christmas, you went crazy (...) You will have to release. I lost all my respect for you", begins the ex-captain of the Blues, describing the exit of Le Graët as "true swelling burr ".

"You know very well what is happening at the castle (de Clairefontaine), how many racist letters we receive, with the writing 'Didier, take back your monkeys and get out of Africa'. We hide them, but I have seen some of them. . We even receive boxes filled with poop, ”explains Patrice Evra. 

"We are in France, we are not at home"

And the side with 81 selections does not stop there, and accuses the authorities of French football of having on several occasions voluntarily put more emphasis on the white players of the team during the various visits of the President of the Republic to Clairefontaine.

“When we eat, we have assigned seats, we are used to sitting next to a guy because we have good relations. Every time the president came, everything changed. I was sitting there, and suddenly, I was at the end of the table. There where normally there was Mamadou Sakho and Bacari Sagna, a lot of sombritude (sic), we had to change. We put a Hugo Lloris or a Laurent Koscielny, and the president at the middle".
