Italy's government has called for an end to racism after comments by former Italy and AC Milan coach Arrigo Sacchi which attracted massive condemnation on social media and the sporting world.

The men -- Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Carlos Slim, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Amancio Ortega, Larry Ellison and Michael Bloomberg -- are collectively worth $426 billion, the anti-poverty group said on Sunday.
