Dani Carvajal expressed solidarity with his Real Madrid teammate, Vinícius Jr., in his fight against racism. He acknowledged understanding "what he goes through" when incidents occur, but reminded him that "Spain is not racist" and has "a very high cultural diversity."

"We, as his teammates and the coach as well, have made it clear that we are against any form of racism in the stadiums, which is what concerns us. I know what Vini suffers in those moments, having been close to him, and we support him both internally and publicly," Carvajal said during a press conference in Belgrade with the Spanish national team.

However, Carvajal did not agree with Vinícius's statements, in which he suggested that Spain should be stripped of the 2030 World Cup if racism isn't addressed by then.

"I think LaLiga is improving and developing protocols regarding racism to ensure that the unruly people who go to stadiums to insult others based on their skin color can't attend sporting events anymore," he stated.

"But beyond that small group of people, I don’t believe Spain doesn’t deserve to host the World Cup. It's a country with a very high cultural diversity; we shouldn’t doubt that it’s not racist because there are many cultures in our country. I grew up in a neighborhood in Leganés surrounded by many nationalities, and I can proudly say that we are not a racist country," he concluded firmly.
