Marseille’s on-loan forward Neal Maupay has sparked outrage among Everton fans by taking a swipe at his parent club in a post on social media. Maupay also had a dig at Everton when he departed on loan to the French club in the summer and his latest taunt has further angered the Premier League team’s supporters. The 28-year-old posted on X after Sean Dyche’s side had lost 2-0 to Nottingham Forest at Goodison Park on Sunday: “Whenever I’m having a bad day I just check the Everton score and smile.” The former boxer Tony Bellew was among the Toffees’ supporters who responded to Maupay, with the former world cruiserweight champion replying on X with simply: “Prick!” Maupay endured a miserable spell at Everton, scoring just one league goal in 29 appearances after being signed by the Merseyside club for an undisclosed fee in 2022. He departed on a season-long loan to his former club Brentford for the 2023-24 season and left Goodison for a second time in August when Marseille signed him on loan with an obligation to make the deal permanent. After leaving Everton in the summer, Maupay outraged their fans with a social media post depicting a scene from the film The Shawshank Redemption, which details the main character’s long fight for freedom.
