It seems that the Argentine footballer Cristian Romero has refused to shake hands with American leader Donald Trump. This happened during the award ceremony at the end of the 2026 World Cup.
The American leader and the FIFA president handed out the champion and runner-up medals to the players, after the match won by Spain, writes realitatea.md. The defender ignored the official.
He shook hands with FIFA President Gianni Infantino, ignored Donald Trump, then shook hands with the President of Mexico and the Prime Minister of Canada.
It’s unclear whether Romero deliberately avoided Trump. The US President was met with whistles and boos at the match.
