Meanwhile, three Valencia fans have each been sentenced to eight months in prison for racially abusing Vinicius Jr.
REAL MADRID WILL refuse to play in Fifa’s expanded Club World Cup next summer, their coach Carlo Ancelotti has said.
“A single Real Madrid match is worth 20 million and FIFA wants to give us that amount for the entire cup.Advertisement The World Leagues Association – which includes the Premier League as a member – and world players’ union Fifpro last month threatened Fifa with legal action unless the Club World Cup is rescheduled.
Fifa has refused to back down, saying it was “fully within its rights” to set the parameters of the competition. The league said the conviction of the trio over an incident at Valencia’s Mestalla stadium on 21 May, 2023 was the first for racist abuse at a football match in Spain.
