Real Madrid C. F. reports that the Court of Instruction n.º 3 of Palma de Mallorca has today handed down a sentence against the individual who directed racist abuse at our player Vinicius Júnior from his seat in the stands at the Son Moix Stadium, during the match between Mallorca and Real Madrid on 5 February 2023.
The defendant has been found guilty of two offenses of infringing on moral integrity, aggravated by having racist motives, committed against Vinicius Júnior, and also against the footballer Samu Chukwueze, a Villarreal player at that time, who was subjected to similar abuse at the Son Moix Stadium by the same individual two weeks later.
The court has sentenced the defendant to twelve months in prison, as well as banning him from football stadiums hosting any games in the Liga Nacional de Fútbol Profesional or by the Real Federación Española de Fútbol for the period of three years.
The suspension of the prison sentence has been made after the defendant apologized and showed his remorse, with a letter addressed to Vinicius Júnior, having completed an equality and anti-discrimination program.
This is the third criminal conviction in recent months for racist abuse aimed at Real Madrid players.
Meanwhile, the minor who insulted our player Aurélien Tchouameni on account of his race at the Son Moix Stadium during the match between Mallorca and Real Madrid on 13 April 2024, has apologized and shown remorse for his conduct, and he has agreed to complete socio-educational activities in the jurisdiction of minors as proposed by Prosecutors.
He will be banned from football stadiums hosting official matches for a one-year period and must pay sanctions imposed on him as a result of his behavior by the State Commission against Violence, Racism, Xenophobia and Intolerance in Sport.
