“We have been demanding for a long time that they listen to us because for decades there has been systematic discrimination against women. It should have said ‘zero tolerance’. There is an open legal proceeding and a victim here. We have never asked for a dismissal, nor the recruitment or withdrawal of a coach. All we did was convey concerns or concepts that the locker room didn’t feel comfortable with.”declared the FC Barcelona player.
