Espanyol is one of the many clubs that have faced sanctions this season for the chanting of their fans. Los Pericos have recently been racially abused towards their owner, which will result in an absurd situation.
The Anti-Violence Committee recorded several occasions during their match with Celta Vigo this weekend where Espanyol fans en masse chanted “Chinese, get out!”, and it was classified as racial abuse. The abuse was directed at Chinese CEO Chen Yansheng and the Rastar Group, which drew the ire of Spanish fans after ten years in charge, and recently seen fans meet outside the Chinese Consulate in Barcelona to protest against them.
Los Pericos will likely be fined for the incident, which means Chen was paying fines for racially abusing him, say. Relief. It is certainly in a dark place in the legislation, with few rules in place for the abuse of the people of a club.
