Recently, Uruguayan footballer Bentancur, in an interview, was asked if he could give away a Tottenham jersey. He replied, “Son Heung-min’s? But it could be his cousin’s too, because Asians all look alike.”
Upon hearing this, Bentancur faced criticism for potentially displaying prejudice against Asians. He then took to social media to apologize to Son, “@SonHeungmin, I want to apologize for that comment, it was an inappropriate joke. You know I love you and would never do anything to hurt you or others. Love you, brother!”
Son Heung-min has not responded publicly at the time of writing.
