Forward makes claim about dressing room incident at Montpellier
‘It was hard to see it as merely a simple error,’ says Matildas star
Matildas star Mary Fowler has claimed she experienced racism while at Montpellier in 2022 when she was given bananas while others in the squad received flowers at the end of her final season with the French club.
The explosive revelations are contained in her memoir Bloom, which was released this week and details the extensive challenges she has faced in her young career, including a pattern of self harm she has worked hard to overcome.
Her difficult time at Montpellier, where she moved at 17, ended three years ago when she was among a group that would not be returning at the end of their contracts.
