Vinícius Jr. is, without a doubt, one of the best players on the planet. However, certain behaviors of the Real Madrid Brazilian have sparked criticism among fans and football people.
Many point out, with more or less reason, the striker’s gestures and protests while others, with the same authority and reason, denounce the treatment he suffers.
In this debate between one and the other, there are countless voices from the world of football that have taken a stand, but until now we had not heard a man speak. history of the world of football in Spain who is not characterized precisely by biting his tongue: Javier Clemente.
The former national coach has spoken on ‘Radio Marca’ about various aspects of current football news and, as a result of Vinícius’ injury, which will keep him out for at least three weeks, Ko wanted to comment on the player and his way of behaving.
«I wish he wasn’t so angry on the field. If they kick you, let them hold on and keep the kick. In football there are bad tackles or wrong referee decisions, but if you can’t stand that, it’s not good,” he said.
The Basque coach wanted to highlight that, for him, the criticism that the Real Madrid ‘7’ receives is not due to an issue of racism:
«I think that if the kid reflected, he would be a person loved by everyone.. It’s not a color problem. We are not a racist country and that is very clear. What happens is that he has focused on it that way because it interested him and I think it is not good for him,” he stated bluntly.
In his casual style, Clemente closed his speech with this reflection:
«He is a great player, but what happens to him is that he argues with the opponent, argue with the referee“He argues with the public, he even argues with my sister and you can’t do it like that,” he said.
