Inter Milan Defender Francesco Acerbi Threatens Fan After Being Taunted Over Champions League Loss

Inter Milan defender Francesco Acerbi was involved in a heated exchange with a fan after being mocked about last month’s Champions League final, which saw PSG defeat Inter 5-0—the club’s heaviest final loss.

The incident occurred during a meet-and-greet, when a fan in Seattle wearing a PSG shirt mocked Acerbi for his team’s defeat. Social media footage shows the Italian international visibly irritated, seeking assistance from a translator who advised the fan to be serious.

In response, Acerbi sharply retorted in Italian: “I’m serious. Don’t mock me—I don’t like it. I’m crazy, I’ll beat the s*** out of you.” After the confrontation, he quickly posed for photos with other fans and moved on.

This outburst comes just weeks after Acerbi declined a call-up for Italy’s World Cup qualifiers, citing disrespect from coach Luciano Spalletti, who was subsequently dismissed. Acerbi expressed frustration on social media, stating:

“It’s not a decision I made lightly. But given recent events, I feel I can’t proceed with peace of mind. I demand respect. If that respect is missing from those leading the team, I prefer to step aside. I won’t stay where I am no longer truly wanted and where I feel I am not part of the coach’s plan.”

Inter Milan is set to face Urawa Reds in their upcoming Club World Cup match.
