Fans think Chelsea player snubbed Donald Trump during Club World Cup trophy ceremony

Fans are adamant that one Chelsea player snubbed US President Donald Trump during the FIFA Club World Cup trophy presentation.

Chelsea won the newly revamped Club World Cup on Sunday evening after easily brushing aside Champions League winners and tournament favourites Paris Saint Germain inside the MetLife Stadium.

The Blues ran out 3-0 winners thanks to a brace from Cole Palmer and a goal by new signing Joao Pedro.

Apart from PSG, Chelsea also beat the likes of LAFC, Flamengo, ES Tunis, Benfica, Palmeiras and Fluminense on their way to glory.

During the trophy presentation, Trump, 79, joined the Chelsea players as they lifted the final piece of silverware of the 24/25 campaign.

Before that, as Trump and FIFA boss Gianni Infantino handed out the medals, fans spotted that one Chelsea star appeared to snub the US President.

Footage on social media showed Chelsea youngster Tyrique George walking past Trump after receiving his medal.

However, it has to be said that as George walked past, Trump had his back turned to collect another medal for the next Blues player.

Trump appeared to say 'Congratulations' in the direction of George.

Reacting on social media, one fan said: "Trump’s face when Tyrique George snubbed him of a handshake."

Another tweeted: "Whether he meant to do it or not, Tyrique George did not shake Donald Trump’s hand as Chelsea were receiving their Club World Cup champions’ medals."

A third fan added: "I saw Tyrique George skip the Trump handshake lol."

Someone else wrote: "Tyrique noticed he was looking the other way and took full advantage lmao."

A fifth commented: "Looks like he started extending his arm and moved on because Trump wasn’t looking."

Speaking after the match, Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca said: "Being Club World Cup champions is something we have to be very proud of.

"We are very happy. Especially for doing it against PSG. As I said before, I consider them the best team in the world with one of the best managers in the world, fantastic players. So it was a top achievement."
