The Brazilian athlete has long been a constant target of racist attacks in Spain, but on Sunday the 21st the verbal attacks became more intense.
“It wasn’t the first time, nor the second nor the third. Racism is normal in La Liga. The competition thinks it’s normal, the Federation does it too and the opponents encourage it. I’m very sorry. The league that once belonged to Ronaldinho [Gaúcho]Ronaldo [Nazário]Christian [Ronaldo] AND [Lionel] Messi is a racist today” the athlete wrote on Twitter.
“A beautiful nation, which has welcomed me and which I love, but which has agreed to export the image of a racist country to the world. I am sorry for the Spaniards who do not agree, but today, in Brazil, Spain is known as a country of racists. And, unfortunately, for everything that happens every week, I cannot defend myself. I agree. But I am strong and I will go all the way against racists. Even if far from here”.
Shortly after, Vinicius Jr. complained about the racist attitudes of the president of La Liga, Javier Tebas Medrano, who decided to attack him on social networks. “No matter how much you talk and pretend not to read, your league’s image is shaken. Look at the replies to your posts and surprise yourself… Omitting you only makes you equal to the racists. I’m not your friend to talk about racism I want actions and punishments. The hashtag doesn’t move me,” said the athlete.
On social media, the player received national acclaim after the repercussions of the European Championship. In addition to fans, names such as Ludmilla, Taís Araújo, Lázaro Ramos and many others have expressed outrage.
“It’s incredible that we see it happening all the time and nobody does anything. We want to act. It’s unacceptable that La Liga, with the importance and scale it has in football, chooses to close its eyes to something that’s happening and be denounced for some time From Vini Jr., from me and from all of us. Fire on the racists!”, published the singer Ludmilla.
Actress Taís Araújo underlined the size of the ace and asked for answers from the European championship: “Vini Jr., you are amazing! We respect you and celebrate you. Your head held high and your surgical answers fill my chest with pride for be part of the same country as you. Raise your head and follow, that we remain steadfast in the fight with you, for you and above all so that serious measures are taken. So, Liga, what are you going to do?”
Actor Lázaro Ramos shared a photo of the Brazilian national team player and a video of the moment Vini Jr. interrogated his attackers. “The racists will not pass. Be strong, Vinicius Jr. You are powerful,” she wrote in his Instagram Stories of him.
The racial attacks angered singer Thiaguinho, who took a stand on the case and demanded justice. “Nothing will silence our voice, nor our talent, nor our struggle… Go ahead, brother! We have been like this for many years… And we will win again… And again… And again.. . Because we are black! And black resists! We are! with you, Pretão”, guaranteed the pagodeiro.
“Stay still, my brother! We love you so much. Fire on racists and all those who keep silent in the face of this cowardice, because they are racists too,” added singer Ferrugem.
In addition to them, the presenter Giovanna Ewbank, who is the mother of two black children, also took a stand on the case. “We are with you, Vini Jr.”, she wrote in the athlete’s publication.
President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva even declared his support for the player while at the G7 summit in Hiroshima over the weekend.
It wasn’t the first time, nor the second, nor the third. Racism is normal in La Liga. The competition thinks it’s normal, the Federation does it too and the opponents encourage it. I am very sorry. The championship that once belonged to Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Cristiano and Messi now belongs to racists. A nation…

Once again, instead of criticizing racists, the president of La Liga appears on social media to attack me.
No matter how much you talk and pretend not to read, your league’s image is shaken. Look at the replies to your posts and you will be surprised…
Omitting yourself only makes you… https://t.co/RGO9AZ24IA
