The Spanish league filed three more complaints for racist insults directed at Villarreal forward Samuel Chukwueze and Real Madrid forward Vincius Jnior during games.
According to the league, one Mallorca fan was identified for insulting players twice, once against Vincius and once against Villarreal midfielder Samuel Chukwueze. Both players are black.
It was reported that police had taken a statement from the individual, who had been identified by Mallorca’s security officials.
The third complaint was filed against an Osasuna fan who insulted Vincius, but the person has yet to be identified.
The league has filed eight complaints with authorities for racist insults or chants directed at Vincius, with three of them being dismissed by prosecutors and three others being accepted for prosecution in court.
Authorities have yet to find those responsible for hanging Vinícius’ effigy from a bridge in Madrid before the derby against Atletico Madrid last month.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp defended Vinícius ahead of his team’s 5-2 loss to Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday, when the Brazil forward scored twice.
“I hope he’s not fussed by any idiots who say something about him,” Klopp said.
There has been little punishment for hate attacks against soccer players in Spain, though recently Valladolid suspended 12 season ticket holders while investigating their alleged use of verbal abuse against Vinícius.
The first trial against a fan who racially insulted a player in Spain is expected to begin this year following remarks by an Espanyol supporter against Athletic Bilbao forward Iñaki Williams a few years ago.
