Tuesday at the microphone of CNNthe Brazilian implied that Spain was “racist”. Comments refuted by the Real captain.
«If things don’t change before 2030, I think the World Cup should change location because players don’t feel comfortable and safe playing in a country (Spain) where they can suffer from racism.“, Vinicius had said on Tuesday at the microphone of CNN. A clear position taken by a player who has been the victim, on numerous occasions, of racist chants directed at him by Spanish supporters.
«There is no doubt that Spain is not a racist country. […] Since I was little, I grew up with many nationalities in my neighborhood, in Leganés. Spain is not a racist country“, replied Real Madrid captain Dani Carvajal. In the process, the full-back strongly condemned the acts suffered by Vinicius.
«We are totally against any situation of racism in stadiums. I know what Vini is going through and we support him both internally and publicly. I think La Liga is improving and protocols are being developed so that crazy people cannot return to sporting events. But, beyond these people, I do not consider that Spain does not deserve to celebrate a World Cup.” concluded the player who will wear the Roja jersey for the 50th time on Thursday against Serbia.
