梅西陷種族歧視風波 皇馬棄將：他罵我黑鬼！

Everton winger Royston Drenthe has hit out at Lionel Messi, claiming that the Barcelona ace called him 'negro' on more than one occasion.

The Dutchman locked horns with the Argentina international a number of times during his spells at Real Madrid and Hercules, and admitted that he would always have problems with Messi in off-the-ball incidents.

"We played against each other a lot, and we always had problems. You know what really bothers me? That tone with which he always called me 'negro, negro'," Drenthe stated in an interview with Dutch magazine Helden.

Drenthe went on to explain that although he realises the use of the term is quite common in South America, he finds it hard to deal with, and explained that his former teammate Mahamadou Diarra had similar problems.

"I understand that it is very common in South America, but we cannot stand it. Mahamadou Diarra, my teammate at Real, would become furious when Gabriel Heinze and Gonzalo Higuain initially called him 'negro'. But they soon stopped," he told the magazine.

He added, "When I played against Barcelona with Hercules, I had the same problems with Messi again. Before the match, he gave me a hand and said, 'Hola negro'. He didn't shake my hand again after the match. I don't think he'll invite me to his birthday party."

The 25-year-old Drenthe is currently on loan at Everton, but the Premier League side is unlikely to make his stay at the club permanent.

【新聞快訊】世界足球先生梅西陷入種族歧視風波！前皇馬球星，目前租借至英超埃弗頓隊效力的荷蘭黑人球員德倫特，5月10日在接受一家荷蘭雜誌採訪時稱，梅西曾多次辱罵他爲“黑鬼”（negro）。

德倫特表示，他知道這種辱罵黑人“黑鬼”的行爲在南美足球聯賽中很普遍。因爲之前他在皇馬時的隊友，阿根廷人海因策和伊瓜因也會辱罵黑人球員默罕默德·迪亞拉，使後者非常憤怒。德倫特回憶了在一場西甲聯賽中，梅西在賽前跟他握手時喊他“黑鬼”，而且在賽後梅西沒有再跟他握手。目前梅西本人和巴塞羅那隊官方都未對德倫特的說法作出迴應。
