La Liga Opens New Investigation After Vinicius Suffers Racist Abuse Against Osasuna

La Liga has launched a new investigation after Brazilian star Vinicius Junior was subjected to racist chants during Real Madrid's 2-1 defeat to Osasuna on Saturday. This incident occurred just days after he faced similar harassment from Benfica fans in the Champions League, where some individuals made offensive monkey gestures towards him.

Vinicius scored Real Madrid's opening goal, but his performance did not alleviate the impact of the crowd's abuse, which included chants like "Vinicius, die" and provocative taunts such as "Vinicius, beach ball," referencing his exclusion from the 2024 Ballon d'Or nominees list. The player appeared visibly tense during the match.

This incident is not the first of its kind involving Osasuna fans, as Vinicius previously faced racist abuse in 2023. However, that case did not conclude due to difficulties in identifying the perpetrators. The Spanish Football Federation continues its investigation to identify those responsible for the recent chants and take appropriate action.
