Inter, Romelu Lukaku thanks Figc: “Justice is done”
After the pardon, comes the comment of the person concerned.
Romelu Lukaku will be able to regularly take the field with the Inter shirt in the Italian Cup semifinal against Juventus. This is the result of the Figc’s decision, which the Belgian striker himself wanted to comment on via a statement reported by the Nerazzurri club’s official website.
“I am really happy for this decision of the FIGC president who has shown great sensitivity. I believe that thanks to his intervention, justice has been done and a great signal has been given to the whole world of sports and beyond. It has been shown that there is a will to fight racism,” the note reads.
The Figc’s decision is the result of President Gabriele Gravina’s decision to pardon Lukaku “on an exceptional and extraordinary basis.” “The principle of combating all forms of racism is a founding element of the sports system,” the federal note could be read.
