Spanish football suffers from racist episodes. The brothers also suffered Williams. “Racism has always existed and will exist. here it comes Freddy Rincon at Real Madrid and at the Santiago Bernabéu he came out with this graffiti: ‘A black in Madrid is a perfect white’. The players opened their arms to him but the environment did not allow him to show what he is,” said Pacho Maturana.
“When a black man does something good, he is a beloved black man. For example, Michael Jordan, Barack Obama, Cassius Clay (Muhammad Ali)… they are dear black people, but, on the contrary, when a black man makes a mistake he is a bad black man. You see Vinicius and you see he could be the best player in the world, dear black man… But when you see him celebrate, what do you think? One has to grow not only as a player but as a person,” he added.
