«This is ridiculous! At some point, people need to stop with this. We're in 2023. It's not enough to denounce it and say it's not normal anymore. We need to act. We need to do something to put an end to this kind of behavior.»

Mbappé's comments come in the wake of a recent incident in which Upamecano, his teammate on the French national team, was subjected to racist insults during a match. Mbappé, a prominent figure in football and an advocate for anti-racism efforts, has made it clear that racism has no place in society, let alone in sports.

This incident is just one of many instances of racism and discrimination that continue to plague the world of sports. In recent years, athletes and organizations have increasingly spoken out against racism and taken steps to address this issue, but more needs to be done. Mbappé's call to action is a reminder that we must not only denounce racism but also take concrete steps to combat it.

As a role model for many young athletes and fans, Mbappé's stance on this issue is an important one. It sends a powerful message that discrimination of any kind is unacceptable and that we must work together to create a more inclusive and respectful society.
