Valencia have called on Spain’s footballing authorities to do more to tackle racism following the alleged abuse of their player Mouctar Diakhaby on Sunday. The Valencia team walked off the field during their 2-1 LaLiga defeat at Cadiz after defender Diakhaby claimed to have been racially abused by the home side’s Juan Cala. “This type of behaviour should not be tolerated in football and in society in general, and we at Valencia CF condemn racism in any form. 🗣️ Anil Murthy: “Valencia CF will support our player and the fight against racism to the end”#JuntsAnemAMUNT #AllToPlayFor — Valencia CF 🦇🍊🌊 (@valenciacf_en) April 5, 2021“We spoke with LaLiga to encourage them to also see their investigation through to the end. #JuntsAnemAmunt #AllToPlayFor pic.twitter.com/RygaquFZlN — Valencia CF 🦇🍊🌊 (@valenciacf_en) April 5, 2021“It is time for a change and Valencia CF will go all the way in support of our player and the fight against racism.
