The thorny subject of racist songs, mainly directed against players, has not stopped making the headlines in Liga in recent years.
Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior has often been at the heart of the controversy, the Brazilian international being targeted by racist supporters from the opposing team on several occasions.

The number 7 of the Whiteos was greeted for his attitude in the face of the situation, drawing attention to the subject throughout Spain.
The authorities have taken measures in some cases, the Liga collaborating with the police and the justice system to inflict fines, stadium bans and, in some cases, prison terms to guilty recognized persons.
The first weeks of the 2025/26 season were not marked by many significant incidents, but according to images circulating on social networks, FC Barcelona striker Marcus Rashford, was targeted during the mid -week victory against Real Oviedo.
Rashford, who is still waiting for his first Liga goal in Barcelona, was replaced in the 89th minute, the Hansi Flick team finally winning 3-1.
The images show crucial songs addressed to Rashford while he was preparing to draw a corner, but no official information from the Liga was communicated at this stage.
La Liga should contact Real Oviedo
The Liga protocol concerning racist songs provides that the stadium speaker will send a warning to the public before identifying the people involved and their expulsion of the stadium.
This protocol does not seem to have been respected in this specific case, the case having apparently been reported after the match.
La Liga should contact Real Oviedo on this subject in the coming days to open an investigation that will require images of this area above the Carlos Tartiere stadium, as well as declarations of the security and police staff.
