Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Milan van Ewijk apologized for Celebration of Haji Wright’s Brace salute.Â
Information reads: “They play Mario kart and he was doing the moustache and then the player who scored does the rashford and points to the sky and then van Ewijk (player in picture) did both at the same time.”
Milan van Ewijk has stressed that he meant no offence after ‘mixing up’ celebrations with a controversial salute in Coventry’s win over Millwall.
The Sky Blues jumped into the play-off positions after a Haji Wright quickfire double secured a 2-1 victory, after cancelling out Romain Esse’s opener for Millwall on Sunday.
Coventry quickly deleted the picture and another shot of his celebration was uploaded in which he did a heart gesture.Â
Van Ewijk also responded to that picture writing: ‘Yeah, that’s a better pic.’
One picture appeared to show that the finger in the air was mimicking team-mate Wright who was also seen doing so during the celebration – with his other hand pointing to his head.Â
Ahead of the game, Coventry’s hero on Sunday, Wright, credited Van Ewijk for helping him settle in to the squad, while adding the full-back was ‘big on celebrating’.
‘He’s a fun guy to be around. A lot of jokes and a lot of fun,’ the United States striker told reporters. Many of the replies alluded to the sinister connotations attached to the image and Van Ewijk came forward to clear up the picture with a comment of his own, confirming he had simply got two celebrations ‘mixed up’.
‘I got two celebrations mixed.. please don’t see this as offensive,’ the former Heerenveen full-back replied to the post, which was later taken down.
After another post was shared in its place, Van Ewijk replied: ‘Yeah, that’s a better pic.’
