The 2030 Fifa World Cup is set to T co-hosted by Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay. In those global platforms, racism is a common problem that’s need to be prevented. Brazilian striker Vinicius Junior has urged that Spain should lose its hosting rights if it doesn’t address racism issues in its stadiums. He’s calling for action on this important matter before the tournament.
Vinicius Junior’s Urge:
The 2030 FIFA World Cup is generating global excitement. However, Brazilian forward Vinícius Júnior has raised concerns about Spain’s hosting rights. He believes Spain should lose the opportunity to host the tournament unless it makes significant strides in addressing racism. This statement has caused a stir in Spain.
Vinícius Júnior, who has frequently faced racist abuse from fans, highlighted a recent incident in Valencia where three men were jailed, marking Spain’s first conviction of this nature. In a recent discussion, Vinícius suggested that moving the World Cup to a different venue should be considered if Spain does not improve its stance on racism.
He said, “Until 2030, there is a lot of room for improvement, so I hope that Spain can evolve and understand how serious it is to insult someone because of the colour of their skin.”
Later he added, “If by 2030 things don’t improve, I think we have to move the location because if a player doesn’t feel comfortable and safe playing in a country where they can suffer racism, it’s a bit difficult.”
Dani Carvajal in This Topic:
Apart from Vinicius, his teammate Dani Carvajal also focused on this topic. He said, “Spain is in no way a racist country, does not deserve to be deprived of the World Cup. I know what Vinicius has to put up with but La Liga is improving and protocols are being drawn up so that these people can no longer take part in sporting event.”
Agreeing with this, Spain’s national team coach Luis de la Fuente said, “There are always undesirables but Spain is not racist, it is an example of coexistence and integration.”
