Javier Tebas comments on Vinicius' statements

Javier Tebas, President of the Spanish League, responded to the statements of Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior, which angered the Spaniards in recent days.

Vinicius had asked not to Holding the 2030 World Cup in Spain, if things do not change in the country regarding racism against black players, who are subjected to insults in matches.

Tebas said: “I think If you search, you will see that the widespread statements were not completely consistent with what Vinicius himself says in the interview. At the same time that he said that perhaps the World Cup should not be considered, he also said that Spain is not a racist country.

He added: “Let us take what is good and leave the things that are not good. Spain is not a racist country, and in that I agree with Vinicius.”

Vinicius was subjected to a harsh attack from the Spanish press, journalists, and media professionals after those statements, stressing that Spain is not a racist country, and that only some are racist.
