Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr has renewed his assault on La Liga and the Spanish authorities, revealing he obtained demise threats this season.
It comes as Real Madrid have lodged a hate crime grievance with Spanish prosecutors after the Brazilian participant was focused with racist abuse throughout their 1-0 defeat away at Valencia on Sunday.
Valencia say police have recognized a fan who made racist gestures at Vinicius and that individual faces a lifetime stadium ban from the Mestalla floor.
In his newest tweet, the 22-year-old winger highlighted what he described as “continuous episodes spread across several cities in Spain”.
He wrote: “Every round away from home is an unpleasant surprise. And there were many this season. Death wishes, hanged doll, many criminal screams… All registered.”
“But the speech always falls on ‘isolated cases’, ‘a fan’. No, these are not isolated cases. They are continuous episodes spread across several cities in Spain (and even in a television programme).”
He went on: “The evidence is there in the video. Now I ask: how many of these racists had names and photos exposed on websites? I answer to make it easier: zero.”
He requested what was lacking to “criminalise these people” and “punish clubs”, including: “Why don’t sponsors charge La Liga?”
“The problem is very serious and communications no longer work. Not blaming me to justify criminal acts either. You are not football, you are inhuman.”
Madrid‘s match towards Valencia was paused on Sunday evening after the half-time break because the Brazilian identified supporters who had been taunting him to the referee.
Vinicius, who has been racially abused from the stands a number of occasions this season, was enraged, prompting team-mates and opposition gamers to attempt to calm him down at Valencia’s Mestalla floor.

He tweeted after the sport: “It wasn’t the first time, nor the second, nor the third. Racism is normal in La Liga. In football they think it’s normal, the federation does too – and the opponent encourages it.
“I’m so unhappy. The championship that when belonged to Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Cristiano [Ronaldo] and [Lionel] Messi immediately belongs to racism.
“A beautiful nation, which welcomed me and which I love, but which agreed to export the image of a racist country to the world.
“I’m sorry for the Spaniards who do not agree however immediately, in Brazil, Spain is named a rustic of racists. And sadly, for one thing that occurs every week, I’ve no defence. I let it occur.
“But I am strong and I will go to the end against racists. Even if it is far from here.”
La Liga not racist – president
La Liga president Javier Tebas responded to Vinicius’s put up on Sunday by accusing the ahead of “criticising and insulting” the league.
In one other tweet on Monday, Tebas mentioned: “Neither Spain nor @LaLiga are racist. It is very unfair to say this.”
‘Attacks represent a hate crime’
In a strongly-worded assertion, his membership mentioned: “Real Madrid CF shows its strongest revulsion and condemns the events that took place yesterday against our player Vinicius Jr.
“These details represent a direct assault on the coexistence mannequin of our social and democratic state of regulation.
“Real Madrid considers that such attacks also constitute a hate crime, for which reason it has filed the corresponding complaint with the state attorney general’s office.”
