‘CNN’ shared another fragment of the extensive interview with Vinicius Jr in which the Brazilian made a very deep reflection on the racism he is suffering in Spain. Such is the situation that the Madrid winger suggested that if there are no changes in this aspect by 2030, perhaps the best thing to do would be to change the location of the next World Cup.
Vinicius’ fight against racism continues. The Brazilian, a victim of this scourge that continues to be present in society, spoke about this issue in an interview with CNN, in which he reflected on a general level and made a very controversial statement about the celebration of the 2030 World Cup in Spain.
“If the situation with racism in Spain does not improve before 2030, the World Cup would have to be moved to a different location. I hope that Spain can evolve and understand how serious it is to insult someone because of the colour of their skin. We have a lot of room for evolution until 2030,” he told ‘CNN’.
“So I hope that Spain can evolve and understand how serious it is to insult a person because of the colour of their skin because if things don’t evolve in 2030, I think we have to change the venue because if the player doesn’t feel comfortable and doesn’t feel safe playing in a country where he can suffer racism, it’s a bit complicated,” he claimed.
The 24-year-old went on to add: “I want to do everything possible to change things because there are many people in Spain, the majority, who are not racist. A small group is, which ends up affecting the image of a country in which it is very good to live. I love playing for Real Madrid. I love Spain, having the best conditions to live here with my family.”
