El Real Madrid se disculpa con China tras comentario de Mbappé sobre Mao

El 28 de octubre, el Real Madrid se disculpó con China después de que el delantero Kylian Mbappé calificara a Mao Zedong de dictador, lo que provocó la ruptura de acuerdos con marcas chinas y la suspensión de su publicidad por parte de los medios estatales, informó The Hindu. El conflicto se originó el 27 de octubre, cuando un vídeo mostró a Mbappé llamando a Mao «dictador chino», lo que llevó a Dongpeng Beverage y al productor lácteo Mengniu a terminar sus patrocinios, según Al Jazeera. La Liga también emitió un comunicado y las autoridades chinas protestaron, lo que derivó en la suspensión de algunas transmisiones, informó CNA.
