Juventus apologise for racist Twitter post appearing to mock Asian people

 The Bianconeri Women's account posted an image of Cecilia Salvai making a gesture mocking Asian people

Juventus have apologised for posting a racist image on Twitter.


The Juventus Women's team shared an image of defender Cecilia Salvai wearing a cone as a hat and slanting her eyes with her fingers, which follows harmful, long-standing caricatures of people from Asia.


The only caption that accompanied the picture was of a face between two hands to replicate Salvai's expression.
