Bologna fans have denied accusations they racially abused Juventus striker Moise Kean during Saturday's Coppa Italia match, stating they instead made "boo" noises to the opposition and their fans.
As reported by Football Italia, the Bologna ultras released a statement demanding an immediate retraction of the accusations: "With reference to the media coverage of supposed racist chants towards Kean, the Centro Bologna Club demands an immediate retraction. The accusation is unfounded, as the 'boo' noises were simply jeers towards the opposition team and their supporters."
Per the report, Gazzetta dello Sport also suggested the jeers heard were "boo" noises rather than monkey chants.
