Viktor Fischer, a Danish pro soccer player, calls out fans for chanting he is gay as an insult.

Danish pro soccer player Viktor Fischer called out fans after they twice this week used gay slurs in chants against him.

“I experienced specific songs against me, directed at me by name, saying I was gay,” Fischer, 24. said. “That’s not the problem. I have nothing against being called one thing or another.

“The problem for me here is that the word ‘gay’ was used as an insult. That is a very, very bad culture for young people and generally for everyone who comes to a football stadium to see football,” he told TV2.

“There’s something of a culture in elite sport, in football, which is based on just being tough, keeping quiet, because that makes you a strong sportsman. But it’s not about being a strong sportsman. It’s about the culture at [stadiums] needing to be better. It’s about ‘homosexual’ not being an insult. It never should have been [an insult], and especially in 2019 in Denmark, it should not be anymore.”
