“I’m out in Montpellier with my family who came from overseas to c me,” Nadolo posted on Twitter. “supporter who is drunk said to me ‘not bad for a monkey to win the game for MHR in Clermont’. Now he was drunk but wow.”

He went to say “the worst thing is they attack you when u out having a good time with your family!”

What’s more remarkable is that the colossal wing – known for his power and athleticism – was able to contain himself. Queried on it and Nadolo simply said ‘Never solve violence with violence’.
