La Liga president apologises for comments on racism in Spanish football
Javier Tebas, the president of La Liga, has apologised for his comments on Twitter in which he suggested that Real Madrid player Vinicius Jr. find out more about what the league is doing to combat racism before criticising it. Tebas has since acknowledged mistakes in not instigating change earlier and has spoken of plans to increase powers against racist offenders. He has also said that La Liga should consider docking points from clubs whose fans engage in racist behaviour.
