La Liga has after reports of racist chanting toward Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior, condemned “hate speech” and says it will work with authorities to investigate the incident.

Real won at Atletico Madrid Sunday, and some opposing fans were believed to have sung racist songs when entering the ground. This comes after Vinicius, 22, said “happiness of a black Brazilian in Europe” was behind recent criticism.

“We denounce all incidents inside and outside stadiums,” said a La Liga spokesperson. “We work with clubs to keep our football friendly and enjoyable.”

The spokesperson added, “Hate speech has no place in La Liga and we always work with the clubs and the authorities to identify and bring to justice any such case.”
