“I don’t care if the player is from Madrid or Barcelona or from another team, it can’t be, we have to control this and fight this and we will do that because this is more important than the title,” he added.
After winning the title Endesa league by winning the third game of the final at Real Madrid, Sarunas Jasikevicius, coach at Barcelona, regretted the racist insults his player received James Naji at the entrance to the pavilion, which was the focus of his press conference after the accident and which he considers a “serious” event. The Barcelona bus was met by home fans who attacked the players shouting “disgusting rats”, “sons of whores” or “Barça, racist, Spain is a Madridista”.
Jasikevicius also regretted some racist abuse Nnaji received when the team arrived at WiZink Center. “It’s sad, it can’t be, I hear him talking a lot about Vinicius and now we’re talking, we have to talk about what’s going on, because this has to stop now.”
«This does not go with what you are saying here about the values of Real Madrid and the values of its followers.. That can’t be, I don’t care if he’s a Real Madrid or Barcelona player or from another team, that can’t be, we have to control this and fight this and we will do it because this is more important than the title”.

I haven’t spoken to James about this. I don’t know how it is, honestly. It is a very serious thing in this world, especially when it happens to your people they are a bit more sensitive. This is serious, we love James a lot, he’s a great guy and we want to end this and talk about it,” the Barca coach concluded in the press room.
