Nemer banned for banana gift
Benetton prop Ivan Nemer was suspended until the end of the season on Friday for giving a rotten banana to Black teammate Cherif Traoré during a secret Santa exchange of gifts at a team dinner on Dec. 20. Traoré, who migrated from Guinea as a child and has represented Italy 15 times, posted about the incident on social media at the time, saying how upset he was, especially at the fact that most of his teammates laughed. They were all made to apologize to him days later.
