Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Korbin Albert finds himself at the center of a major controversy on social networks, where Internet users have highlighted several activities considered problematic on his part on Instagram and TikTok, and in particular “likes” and “shares” of homophobic and transphobic content.
One of the contents shared by Albert on TikTok is the testimony of a young man who recounts how the Catholic religion and Jesus “saved” him from many setbacks in his life, among which he cites, among other things, his bisexuality and his transgender identity, about which he speaks of “shame”, but also alcohol, drugs and the numerous crimes committed when he was young.

The soccer legend American, a global figure in the fight for LGBT rights, published a long story message this Thursday evening which indirectly evokes this affair. “To all those hiding behind their beliefs, I would just ask one question: are you making the environment safer and more inclusive, bringing out the best in everyone? Because if you don’t, all you believe in is hate. And children commit suicide because of this hatred. Wake up the fuck! » Message shared on Instagram by another American soccer figure, Becky Sauerbrunn.
Those around the player explain that she was devastated this morning when she saw the reactions on social networks and, regarding the TikTok video that she shared and which caused the most reaction, that she wanted only share religious content and not homophobic remarks at all.
