Vinicius Jr. breaks down in tears while discussing racism in Spain.
Real Madrid star, Vinicius Jr. has been vocal about the racist innuendoes that he has constantly been a victim of while playing in Spain. Despite several complaints, the league has done next to nothing to curb this situation and has on many occasions, been penalized for reacting to these degrading remarks. Ahead of Brazil’s clash against Spain, Vinicius, when asked about the impacts of these racist attacks on him, broke down in tears while explaining that it continues to make him feel less motivated to play the game he loves. He however assured fans that he would not leave the club, as the president and club continues to support him. Football fans have since shown great support for the forward whilst also criticizing the Spanish league for not taking actions against this social problem.
