In an interview with Radio Rivadavia, the former Paraguayan goalkeeper not only defended the young Argentine but also pointed directly at Vinicius Jr. as the instigator of the altercation, using a term that has sparked controversy.
"Why in Spain do they come and want to sacrifice Prestianni? If the first insult came from the side of the mo..., from Vinicius, who is black-skinned", he stated on the program La Oral Deportiva.
Chilavert was blunt in questioning why the Brazilian is often involved in these types of conflicts while his teammates are not. "90% of Madrid's players are black, how come they never have problems and Vinicius does with everyone?", the former Vélez player asked. He also accused the forward of being inconsistent in his fight against discrimination by not denouncing police violence in Brazilian stadiums against foreign fans.
Transphobic comments against Kylian Mbappé
The Paraguayan's criticism also extended to Kylian Mbappé, who showed his support for Vinicius. Chilavert launched a personal attack against the Frenchman.
"He talks about values and all that and lives with a transvestite, it's not normal. Everyone can do what they want with their life but it's not normal for a man to live with a transvestite". For the former goalkeeper, these figures are not the role models in a sport that, according to him, has lost its original essence.
And to complete the combo, homophobia
Chilavert also expressed his discontent in terms that are, to say the least, controversial about the modernization and extreme surveillance on the field.
"Since they put microphones and more cameras, football has become effeminate". With his usual direct and controversial style, the Paraguayan reiterated his solidarity with Prestianni, asking that the boy not be sanctioned and assuring that Vinicius "is the first to go and insult everyone."
