Real Madrid footballer, Vinicius Junior, opened up about his struggles with racism in La Liga, expressing how it's making him think twice about his future in the sport.

In an emotional pre-match conference before Brazil's friendly with Spain, the 23-year-old winger couldn't hold back tears when asked about racism.

Vinicius shared that facing racism makes him lose motivation to play, but he's determined to stay in Spain so those who hurl racial insults can see his resilience.

Despite the challenges, he emphasized his commitment to fighting against racism and called for an end to the suffering endured by black people.

The Brazilian star clarified that while he's considering his options, leaving Spain completely has never crossed his mind.

Vinicius said: “I just want to play football but it’s hard to move forward… I feel less and less like playing. It never crossed my mind [to leave Spain] because if I leave Spain, I give the racists exactly what they want.

“I will stay because that way the racists can continue to see my face more and more. I’m a bold player; I play for Real Madrid and we win a lot of titles and that doesn’t sit well with a lot of people.”
