German national soccer coach Julian Nagelsmann condemns ‘racist’ poll which asked if team has enough White players
The poll conducted by German public broadcaster ARD found that
21% of 1,304 randomly selected respondents wanted more White players representing the county at Euro 2024 – the continent’s European Championships – which Germany hosts from June 14 to July 14.
