Super Eagles winger, Chidera Ejuke, has faced backlash from Sevilla fans after being spotted laughing on the bench during the 4-2 defeat against Villarreal in the final LaLiga match of the season.
SportingSun sourced on X app, former Twitter, that the loss heightened tensions among supporters, who gathered at San Pablo Airport to express their frustrations as the team departed for a friendly in Casablanca.
Ejuke’s laughter during a critical moment, with the team trailing, struck fans as inappropriate given the game’s significance, particularly as he has played a minimal role since joining Sevilla.
Many fans took to social media to voice their discontent, referencing former player Fernando Reges’ comments about a lack of seriousness within the squad.
While Ejuke is known for his cheerful demeanour, fans felt his laughter during such a disappointing match was out of place.
He likely regretted the moment upon seeing the footage, as he has shown commitment to the club since his arrival.
