BARCELONA, 28 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) –

FC Barcelona player Alejandro Balde made it clear on Tuesday that he received “several insults” from Getafe fans in the Coliseum but wanted to clarify that it should not be “generalized” or “staining the image of football” for these isolated cases , that they must be marked and persecuted to prevent them from repeating and that may affect other players.

“Yes, it is true that it was a complicated situation, I received several insults on Getafe Day. But because 3-4 people insult you, they must not generalize all the football itself, you do not have to stain the image of all the people by 4 people, “he said at a press conference.

In addition, Balde was proud to be black and made it clear that, although they must be denounced, these insults do not affect him. “When you receive those insults, you have to point to those who are, as I did well, and that LaLig Be it, “he was sincere.

The side already denounced after the game to have received “enough racist insults” from the Getafe coliseum stands during the match last Saturday on the 20th of LaLiga EA Sports, where the Blaugrana team did not pass from the draw (1-1 ).

“I am surprised that Getafe’s day passes, which calls me black when his captain is black. But to denounce and continue,” the Spanish international defense settled.
