Neal Maupay slams abuse suffered by Everton players as they boarded train in London Euston

Neal Maupay has criticised the abuse suffered by Everton players as they made their way back to Merseyside on Saturday evening. The Frenchman took to X on Sunday evening after footage emerged of some fans shouting at the team as they boarded a train at London Euston.

Everton were returning north after losing 4-0 at Tottenham Hotspur. The Blues have now lost both of their opening games and sit bottom of the Premier League table.

Some of the fans decided to vent their anger at the players as they left the capital, with Maupay and Mason Holgate both seemingly singled out in the footage.

'Imagine another job where it's normalised to get abuse like this,' said Maupay on social media in a quote tweet of the video. 'Hanging around at a train station to scream at men who are trying their best…'

One supporter can be heard calling Maupay a 'rat', while one references Holgate earning '80 grand a week'. Maupay is yet to play a minute for Everton this season, while Holgate was used as a late substitute in the 3-0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion on the opening weekend.

Maupay spent last season on loan at Brentford. The 28-year-old has been frequently linked with a move away from Goodison Part this summer, with Marseille most recently credited with an interest.
