Wednesday's (13th) round of the Champions League, despite great emotions, was marked by yet another episode of racism. This time, Vini Jr, creation of Flamengo, was the target again, with Atlético de Madrid fans hurling racial insults against the Brazilian. The management of La Liga denounced the incident.

The situation occurred before the victory and heroic classification of the colchoneros in the Champions League, passing through Inter Milan. On the outskirts of the Metropolitan Stadium, some fans chanted offensive songs such as "Olé , hello, Vinícius chimpanzee".


This is not the first time that Atlético de Madrid supporters have targeted Vini Jr for acts of racism. In 2023, a doll depicting the athlete was hung on a bridge in the Spanish capital, simulating the Brazilian's suicide; already this year, chants of "it's a monkey, Vinícius is a monkey" were sung, before the classification in the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey.


As reported by COPE's "El Partidazo" program, the directors of the Spanish Championship will use their influence to denounce the fans. The justification is that, even though it is a UEFA competition game, the league wants to reaffirm the institution's commitment to making football a 'hate-free space'.

BARCELONA FANS WISH 'DEATH' ' A VINI JR

Barcelona's qualification for the quarter-finals of the Champions League, achieved on Tuesday (12) over Napoli, was marked by yet another episode involving Vini Jr, from Real Madrid. The Brazilian was the target of insults from Catalan fans for the third time.

Before the start of the match, Blaugrana fans gathered outside the Montjuïc Olympic Stadium to sing the chant "Morra, Vinícius".

Two young talents revealed by Flamengo shone in Europe this Saturday (14). Goalkeeper Kauã Santos made his Bundesliga debut for Eintracht Frankfurt, helping the team to a 2-1 victory over Wolfsburg. Kauã entered the field after the experienced Kevin Trapp was injured at the end of the first half. Meanwhile, defender Léo Duarte scored his first goal in European football, securing Basaksehir's 1-0 victory over Bodrum in the Turkish league.

Kauã Santos, who arrived at Flamengo at the age of 16, he never played for the Rio club's main team. After standing out in the youth categories, the goalkeeper caught the attention of Eintracht Frankfurt, who invested R$8.4 million for 70% of his economic rights. On his debut, Kauã was unable to save a penalty taken by Baku, but held off Wolfsburg's pressure, helping to maintain his team's victory.


In turn, Léo Duarte, Copinha champion, rose to Flamengo professionals in 2016 and, little by little, established himself as a starter. In 2018, Milan, from Italy, spent 11 million euros to sign him. After a discreet spell at the Italian club, Léo transferred to Basaksehir, where he finally scored for the first time in Europe.

Léo Duarte and Kauã Santos' moment in Europe

Léo Duarte's Basaksehir occupies third place in the Turkish league with 10 points, just two less than leader Galatasaray. Kauã Santos' Eintracht Frankfurt is in sixth place in the Bundesliga, with six points, three behind leaders Bayern Munich.

O Atlético de Madrid< /b> is moving to reinforce its squad with a young talent from Brazilian football. The Spanish team appointed a scout professional to closely monitor Flamengo midfielder Evertton Araújo. The club's strategy is to sign the player and, in principle, integrate him into its B team, with a view to enhancing his development and preparing the athlete for eventual promotion to the main team.

The presence of the scout in Brazil demonstrates the serious interest of

FLAMENGO COULD LOSE JEWEL

Atlético de Madrid has a tradition in investing in promising young people, and the hiring of Araújo aligns with this strategy. The club seeks to take advantage of the player's potential, initially integrating him into the B team. The idea is that, over time, Evertton adapts to European football and is ready to contribute to the main team.

A movement around Evertton Araújo reflects the increasing globalization of the transfer market and the search by European clubs for emerging talents in less explored markets. Brazil, known for its rich football tradition and the development of great players, continues to be a focus of attention for international clubs.
