The Embassy Lodges Protest Over Racial Discrimination Incident by Real Madrid Fans

@SHOWMI, a fan, updated the latest progress of his rights protection on Weibo after experiencing racial discrimination from Real Madrid fans following the Champions League final. He stated that he has reported the incident to the London police.

He wrote on Weibo: "SHOWMI immediately reported the hate crime to the London police after the incident. After reviewing the report, the London police have scheduled an appointment with Kevin for an interview at the local police station this Wednesday." At the same time, SHOWMI has not yet received a response or an apology to Chinese fans from Real Madrid's official channels or the individuals involved. "Thanks to the embassy for speaking out."



The Chinese Embassy in Spain has noticed that recently a few Real Madrid fans made vulgar and malicious anti-Chinese remarks during an interview. We are deeply shocked and outraged by this, and have immediately lodged a stern protest with Real Madrid Club.

Real Madrid Club expressed its opposition to the improper remarks made by these individual fans, emphasizing that the club rejects and condemns any form of racial discrimination and xenophobic behavior. They stated that these are isolated actions by a few fans and go against the values and principles of Real Madrid Club, and do not represent the attitudes of the club or the majority of Real Madrid fans.

Real Madrid Club values and cherishes its Chinese fans, and it places great importance on its friendly ties with the great nation of China. The club appreciates the support from Chinese fans and hopes to continue to play a positive role in fostering friendly relations between Spain and China. (End of announcement)
