The CBS Sports pundit made the remarks during pre-match discussion for Milan's game against Parma, reiterating his criticism of Fabregas' actions during the 1-1 draw between Milan and Como. Saelemaekers reacted with fury after the Como coach held his shirt, allowing Como to break up the pitch.
Fabregas has since apologized for the incident, but Reo-Coker emphasized that such behavior is unacceptable in professional football. The incident has sparked widespread debate in football circles since it occurred last week.
