Franck Ribery goes off on ‘haters’ in foul-mouthed tirade

Jack O'Toole

Bayern Munich winger Franck Ribery has sent a foul-mouthed message to his detractors after dining at the Nusr-et restaurant while on the Bundesliga’s winter break.

Ribery ordered a gold covered steak made by chef Nusret Gokce, also known as ‘Salt Bae‘, and proceeded to kick off the new year by telling his haters to effectively ‘fuck off”.

“For 2019, let’s dot the i’s and cross the t’s… Let’s start with the jealous, the haters, those only born because a condom had a hole in: fuck your mothers, your grandmothers and even your family tree. I owe you nothing.

“My success is, above all, thanks to God, me, and my loved ones who believed in me. For the others, you’re nothing but pebbles in my socks!”

Ribery and teammate Arjen Robben are both tipped to leave Bayern this summer with the latter already confirming that he will leave the club and Ribery remarked earlier this week that he can still enjoy his time with the Dutch winger for the rest of this season.

“That’s a pity! But that’s football, that’s life. We still have a few months together, and we have to focus on the pitch.”
