The scourge of racism continues to divide Spanish football.
It is a very strong position that has been applauded in Spain: victim of racist acts on several occasions, Vinicius has demanded that Spain lose the allocation of the 2030 World Cup if it does not manage to find a solution to this serious problem.
Congratulated for his stance, the Real Madrid striker also provoked strong reactions from personalities in Iberian football. Javier Tebas, the president of the Spanish Football League, also wanted to respond to the Brazilian international.
Tebas, his strange response to Vinicius
“I think if you look at it you'll see that his statements are not entirely consistent with what he himself says in the interview.” launched the eccentric Spanish leader as part of a visit to Beijing for the signing of a partnership between La Liga and China.
“At the same time that he was saying that maybe the World Cup should not be considered, he was also saying that Spain was not a racist country. Let's remove what is inconsistent and stick with what is consistent: Spain is not a racist country, and I agree with Vinícius on that.”Tebas concluded. Not sure that this answer is enough to convince Vinicius.
