Vinicius hit with death threats in hours leading to 'Clasico' final
A group of Barcelona fans were spotted on Saturday chanting death threats targeted at Real Madrid superstar Vinicius Junior in the hours leading up to the Copa del Rey final.
The world's eyes are glued to the screen as just hours remain until the anticipated Copa del Rey final between Barcelona and Real Madrid, which is also the third 'Clasico' of the season.
Blaugrana and Merengues shirts have taken over the streets of Sevilla, where the final will be hosted, with chants taking place as usual. And Vinicius Junior was particularly the subject of one of them.
The 24-year-old Brazilian superstar was hit with vile death threats from supporters of the Catalan outfit, who were videoed repeatedly singing "Vinicius die" at the top of their lungs ahead of the game.
Vinicius has been a victim of various ugly chants throughout the season, with Atletico fans making headlines on the occasion of the Madrid derby in the Champions League last 16 for their racist remarks toward the player.
