Striker Samuel Eto`o blasts Spanish racists
From correspondents in Barcelona
BARCELONA`s Cameroon international striker, Samuel Eto`o, has blasted the racist fan element in the Spanish game.
And he blamed adults who indulge in xenophobic chants of setting a bad example to impressionable children.
"The kids don`t know if these monkey chants are good or bad. They just listen to their parents who are gods to them and this is what is worrying," he told the secretary general of the journalists` union in the Balearic islands, Andreu Manresa.
Racism has marred the Spanish game this season with the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) recently handing national team coach Luis Aragones a 3000 euro ($3500) fine for making racist comments about Arsenal`s Thierry Henry last October.
Aragones caused a storm after making reference to Henry`s colour during a training session to the French striker`s Arsenal teammate, Jose Antonio Reyes.
Aragones insisted he was merely geeing up Reyes by telling the youngster he has at least as much talent as his Highbury teammate.
And Spanish fans were in hot water after loudly booing England`s black contingent during a friendly international in Madrid in November.
