Udinese Club issued an official statement expressing its full solidarity with its striker Keinan Davis, following what the club described as "disgraceful racist insults" during the team's match against Cagliari in the Italian league.

Udinese confirmed in its statement its strong condemnation of such actions, emphasizing that these acts harm the values and image of sports. The club also clarified that it will support its player in all relevant authorities, with full confidence in the swift action of sports justice to investigate what happened.

The issue escalated after the strong message posted by Keinan Davis on his Instagram account, where he accused Cagliari defender Alberto Dossena of directing racial abuse at him during the match.

Davis said in his post: "This racist coward called me a monkey during the match. I hope the Italian League takes action, but we'll see."

The incident sparked widespread reactions on social media, with public and media demands for an urgent investigation and strict penalties if the accusations are proven, especially with the increasing campaigns against racism in European stadiums in recent years.
