Three were detained in Valencia for alleged abuse against Vinícius in a Spanish league match on Sunday. Four were arrested in Madrid for allegedly hanging an effigy of the player off a highway bridge in January.

The impact of what happened at Valencia, and Vinicius Jr's long-held frustration over how authorities have approached tackling the subject, now leaves Real Madrid's star player with doubts over his future at the club because he does not feel supported. He feels it is a battle he has been left to take on alone.

The 22-year-old Brazil forward ended his social media message on Sunday by writing: "I am strong and I will go all the way against the racists. Even if it's far from here."

The Athletic contacted Vinicius Jr's staff, asking if this meant he was contemplating an exit from La Liga and Madrid.

Sources from his entourage, who asked not to be named in order to protect their position, replied: "Yes. When you have to fight on your own..."

Another such source was even more categorical: "Until today, there was no chance. From today, yes."

If Vinicius Jr were to decide he wants to leave Madrid due to the regular racist abuse he suffers and the lack of support he receives, Spanish football will lose its brightest talent and it alone will be 100 per cent responsible.

that's sweet and all but qpr has kicked your tiny dicks into the dirt 25 times

WE ARE QPR!

Oh you're into QPR? It was the team of choice for some of hte postpunk crowd I think

And they had one of my favorite players of all time, the fat Moroccan

Speaking of Aston Villa, how ridiculous is it that Maguire was called up by Southgate to all those tournaments ahead of Mings. I've seen Mings make the odd error but overall he's clearly so much more athletic and talented than Maguire

that's a fantastic montage

Mings has been so good this season. And he's a lovely bloke as well.

Villa fans HATE Southgate

Its really bad.

- We're being linked with Marco Asensio on a free and apparently he feels seduced by our offer. This would be fantastic business.

- Ivan Toney revealed to have a gambling addiction and bet on his team to lose and win several times.

- Playoffs this weekend, backing Coventry even though they fucking hate us.

- Dortmund can win the league this weekend 🥹 BVB 🟡⚫🟡

Klopp's Dortmund team of 2011-13 is one of my favourite teams ever. Will always love Klopp. Shame they couldn't win the CL or stay together.

Bayern 1-0 up.

Dortmund 1-0 down.

Dortmund MUST SCORE TWICE to win the title.

Dortmund just got a penalty after a VAR review, Sebastien Haller had it saved.

Noise in the Westfalenstadion is

COME ON DIE SCHWARZGELBEN! 🟡⚫🟡

Fuck me Dortmund 2-0 down now this is a disaster 😭
