Last Wednesday, Acolfutpro (Association of Colombian Footballers) filed a serious complaint after announcing that, during the meeting between Águilas Doradas and Pasto, at the end of date five of the local league, José Fernando Salazar, the club’s largest shareholder paisa, a rival player with racist insults.
According to Acolfutpro, Salazar shouted a monkey at Iván Rivas, attacker of the Nariño team, from the stands of the Rionegro stadium.
Likewise, a video was known on social networks in which Salazar also attacks Camilo Ayala.
It is not the first time that Salazar has been involved in a scandal, because two years ago he faced insults at Nacional fans, among other things. Likewise, the manager had also faced other racist situations, most notably with Hubert Bodhert, who when he was in Once Caldas had crosses with Salazar, whom he accused of being racist.
For now, the leader, who strongly criticized Jorge Enrique Vélez while he was president of Dimayor and who was once questioned for calling footballers “prostitutes in uniform”, has no comment on the matter.
