Two of FC Barcelona's France stars have been swept up in an alleged racism scandal.
Following France's shock exit from the 2020 UEFA European Championship last week, a video featuring Antoine Griezmann and Ousmane Dembele circulated on social media over the course of the past weekend.

In the clip, the two Blaugrana players are allegedly seen mocking Asians during their stay at a hotel.
It is said that, in the video, the two forwards watch on as a group of Asian men work to repair the Barca duo's television so that the footballers could play popular video game Pro Evolution Soccer, according to the Daily Mail.
Dembele, who is understood to have been doing the filming, makes fun of the men as they work, reportedly saying to Griezmann in French: "All these ugly faces, just so you can play PES (Pro Evolution Soccer), aren't you ashamed?"
He is also believed to have said to the men: "What kind of backward language is that?" and "Are you technologically advanced in your country or not?"
The video, which is believed to have been taken a few years back, led to outrage on social media, with the hashtag "#StopAsianHate" trending seemingly as a result.
The date the video was made is still unknown, but there have been calls for the French Football Federation to release a statement condemning the duo's actions.
Dembele has since apologised for his actions.
"It all took place in Japan. It could've taken place anywhere on the planet and I would've used the same expression," he wrote on Instagram.
"I was therefore not targeting any community. I just happened to use this type of expression with my friends regardless of their origins. This video has since been made public. I appreciate therefore that it could've hurt the people present in these images. Because of this, I would like to sincerely apologise to them."
Griezmann also took to social media to apologise.
"For the past few days, certain people have wanted to paint me as someone that I am not," he wrote on Twitter. "I firmly refute the accusations made against me, and I'm sorry if I have offended any of my Japanese friends."
This is not the first time that the former Atletico Madrid striker has been accused of racism, with the forward having to apologise in 2017 for dressing up in blackface for a party.
