Paul Pogba, Ousmane Dembele 'subjected to racist chanting during France game'

FIFA has confirmed that it is investigating allegations of racist chanting aimed at France players during a recent friendly against Russia.

According to Goal.com, Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba and Barcelona attacker Ousmane Dembele were subjected to monkey noises by members of the crowd.

The chants are alleged to have taken place during Les Bleus' 3-1 victory in St Petersburg, where Pogba and Kylian Mbappe got on the scoresheet.

A spokesperson for the world governing body said: "FIFA is collecting the different match reports and potential evidence in regards to the discriminatory incident reported in the media, including the one from the FARE [Football Against Racism in Europe] observer who was present at the game. Please understand, until we have evaluated all information available, we cannot comment further."

Neither Pogba nor Dembele has spoken about the allegations yet.
