Cagliari defender Alberto Dossena denies racist abuse allegations made by Udinese striker Keinan Davis following their Serie A match last weekend. Multiple reports say the dispute centers on an alleged racial slur directed at Davis during or after the game, and that tensions between players escalated after the final whistle, including a scuffle involving players from both teams. Davis is reported to have accused Dossena of using a racist remark, including an allegation that he called him a “monkey.”
Cagliari rejects the claims, stating that the “alleged incident” lacks “objective evidence or substantiation.” Dossena also responds publicly to the accusation, describing it as a “disgraceful” and untrue allegation and denying that he racially abused Davis. The reports present the situation as an ongoing disciplinary and evidentiary matter within Italian football, with both sides maintaining opposing positions on what was said.
