The National Police has arrested four people this Tuesday in Madrid in relation to the doll dressed in the Vinicius shirt that appeared hanging from a bridge in front of the Valdebebas Sports City before the Copa del Rey derby last January. The armed force has reported the arrest through a tweet in which it has added the hashtag STOP #delitosdeodio.
The dummy, for which an investigation was opened, appeared at the end of January placed around the Ciudad Deportiva de Valdebebas next to a banner with the slogan “Madrid hates Real” in the run-up to the Real Madrid-Atlético de Madrid derby. King’s Cup.
This performance comes after the worldwide controversy that broke out last Sunday around Vinicius and racism in Spanish football. During the league match between Real Madrid and Valencia, several fans called the Real Madrid striker a “monkey”, who stopped the match to point out the culprits.
After the match, in which Vinicius ended up expelled, the Brazilian published a harsh message against LaLiga and Spanish football. “It wasn’t the first time, nor the second nor the third. Racism is something normal in LaLiga. I’m sorry,” he said in the publication that went up to all of his social networks.
Vincius, sources close to the player point out, is “very concerned” about the drift that events have taken. This season the racist events against him have been hardening. The Brazilian does not understand how the hate chants that were made at the gates of the Metropolitan were archived by the justice system. He understands that the racist is not punished as he should.
The Brazilian environment expected a firm step also from the club and it came with the announcement of the complaint before the Prosecutor’s Office. The president himself, Florentino Pérez, explained it to him in person, who assured him that they will go to the last resort so that the guilty are punished and with harsh penalties it is possible to curb the wave of racism that is suffering. Vincius already knows every step that Real Madrid is going to take off the pitch to find immediate solutions.
Real Madrid denies that everything that Vincius is suffering in Spanish football causes a desire to leave the club and go play in a league like the English one. In Brazil it is pointed out that his environment has put it on the table. At the club they rule him out outright, with a closed agreement with the player to be announced before he goes on vacation.
Pending the sanction, what is certain is that Vincius will not be on Wednesday against Rayo Vallecano and could also miss the visit to Sevilla before closing the season against Athletic. Everything is expected to be in one match and the player is already working on his physical recovery. He’s been in a mood for a few days, they point out from the locker room, that they see the young player overcome by events.
