Alvaro Morata thinks fans who are racist should be given lifetime bans
Racism is still an issue in football with Real Madrid attacker Vinicius Junior enduring disgusting comments and chants from fans this season. The Brazilian winger was the victim of racist abuse from Osasuna fans in Los Blancos' 2-0 win on February 18.
Atletico Madrid forward Alvaro Morata has called for lifetime bans to be handed out to fans who're racist. He termed the issue unacceptable and said that children are present at games. He told ESPN:
"It's unacceptable and inexplicable. It should never have a place in football. The first time a person does that in a stadium, he should be banned for life because many times people go to watch a sporting event often with children."
Morata then touched on Vinicius being at the end of racist abuse. The Spaniard said that the Madrid forward is not the only victim:
"These (episodes of racist chants and insults) are not just happening to Vinicius,' Morata added. Perhaps it always feels as though it happens to him because he is in the media limelight but no. ... These (insults) happen every Sunday in each stadium."
