Vinicius Junior believes that racism is "normal" in La Liga after the latest attack on the Real Madrid star during Sunday's clash against Valencia.
The clash at Mestalla was suspended for several minutes when Vinicius pointed out home fans who racially abused him.
The Brazilian was later sent off after he hit out at Valencia's Hugo Duro and has taken to social media to argue that Spain is developing a reputation as a racist country following repeated attacks on him.
"It wasn't the first time, nor the second, nor the third. Racism is normal in La Liga," he wrote in a post on Twitter. "The competition thinks it's normal, the [Spanish Football] Federation does too and the opponents encourage it.
"I'm so sorry. The championship that once belonged to Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Cristiano [Ronaldo] and [Lionel] Messi today belongs to racists.
"A beautiful nation, which welcomed me and which I love, but which agreed to export the image of a racist country to the world.
"I'm sorry for the Spaniards who don't agree, but today, in Brazil, Spain is known as a country of racists. And unfortunately, for everything that happens each week, I have no defence. I agree. But I am strong and I will go to the end against racists. Even if far from here."
