Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti confirmed that Vinicius Junior is in a very bad condition because he was subjected to racist insults during the last Valencia match in La Liga, in which the team lost 1-0. Carlo Ancelotti believes Vinicius will stay at Real Madrid despite the player hinting he was open to leaving the club after two years of racist abuse. Ancelotti was only interested in discussing the alleged racism suffered by forward Vinicius Junior during the Liga match against Valencia. While Real lost 1-0 to the home side, the Italian focused on the repeated abuse that the Brazilian striker has suffered, and Vinicius himself wrote a message on Instagram that appeared to blame La Liga for his red card. Asked about Vinicius’ frame of mind, Ancelotti added: “He didn’t want to play on. I told him that I didn’t think it was fair, it wasn’t his fault, and he wasn’t to blame. He continued playing, and he also got a senseless red card. We have a problem. “For me, Vinícius is one of the best in the world. These episodes of racism can’t happen; it was the whole stadium, not just one person, as on other occasions. It has to be stopped. And I would say the same if we won 3-0.” Ancelotti said during the press conference for the Rayo Vallecano match: "We are all concerned about what happened. I think it is fair that there is a lot of talk about this issue. It is a wonderful opportunity to improve things He added: "Vinicius is sad and today he did not train, because he was suffering from a small discomfort in his knee." He continued: "Vinicius was a victim of everything that happens. Sometimes he is blamed for being a provocateur. No, let's be clear, he is a victim of all this. Like the fans who behave impeccably." "Spain is not a racist country, but there is racism. In recent years, Viennese has gained prominence and that has made it a "sports enemy. This can happen, but all this leads to racism". he continued
On the possibility of Vinicius leaving La Liga, he commented: "I don't think that will happen because he loves Real Madrid and wants to make his career in this team." “Vinicius’ future must be here, and he knows that very well and there is no intention to leave. He feels that he wants to work in Real Madrid because he loves the club.” He continued: "I'm waiting to see what happens. Hopefully, it will be something and of course, I'm worried. Because for me it's an important moment."
