Real Madrid lost to Osasuna this Saturday (21), by 2-1, potentially allowing Barcelona to take the lead in La Liga this round.
Vinícius Júnior scored the goal for Los Blancos in a hostile environment in Pamplona, being heavily booed from the start of the match.
According to reports from Bild and The Athletic, the local fans not only booed the Brazilian star, but also allegedly verbally abused Vini, and for this reason, La Liga is investigating the case.
According to the reports, the Brazilian was repeatedly insulted and targeted with derogatory chants from the stands during Real’s defeat.
La Liga is reportedly analyzing videos of chants like "Vinicius, muérete," which translates directly to "Die, Vinicius," that were allegedly repeated multiple times.
The word "tonto," which means "idiot," could also be heard.
Even before the match, the forward, who scored the equalizing goal in the second half, had already been greeted with boos from the home fans.
The incident comes after the controversy in Lisbon, during the Champions League playoffs, when Benfica player Gianluca Prestianni allegedly insulted him in a racist manner – UEFA is investigating the case.
Since 2021, La Liga has investigated 26 cases of racist insults against the Real star.
Especially in matches against Osasuna, he has already been targeted by the home fans on several occasions.
