- Romain Molina, a French soccer journalist, has made bombshell yet unsubstantiated claims about the sport at a widespread level.
- One of his allegations involves USMNT star Megan Rapinoe.
- Molina says Rapinoe “prefers earning money” over “defending” alleged Haitian rape victims.
Romain Molina, a French soccer journalist who has been published by The Guardian and the New York Times, hosted a Twitter Space session in which he made unsubstantiated bombshell claims about the sport, including that United States Women’s National Team star Megan Rapinoe allegedly “wasn’t bothered by Haitian girls getting raped” and that she “prefers earning money over “defending these young girls.” It’s worth noting that until his findings are formally presented, these allegations are just the word of one man, albeit a globally respected journalist which lends more credence to the claims without the full report being revealed yet.
Rapinoe, the 36-years-old USWNT and OL Reign winger, has been widely championed as an advocate for women and the LGBTQ community. In 2020, she was named as one of Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in the world. During her storied playing career, Rapinoe has won gold with the national team at the 2012 London Summer Olympics, 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup, and 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
Molina’s expansive claims are not limited to Rapinoe, though, as he also alleged “400 plus current players Premier League, Championship, Ligue 1, and Ligue 2 have been raped multiple times in their youth, a Ligue 1 team covered up a pedophilia scandal in their youth academy,” and that “some international games in Asia are fixed.” The entire list of Romain Molina’s allegations has complied in this Reddit thread. To be clear, Molina’s claims were made in a Twitter Spaces discussion and not officially published anywhere.
At the time of this publication, none of the sport’s official governing bodies, such as FIFA and UEFA, have responded to Molina’s allegations.
