Sevilla player Jordan targeted by hung dummy before derby with Betis -
The Spanish league and Sevilla denounced an apparent hate act by unknown persons against Sevilla player Joan Jordán on Saturday, the day before the Seville city derby with Real Betis.
The incident was similar to one suffered by Real Madrid’s Vinícius Júnior in January when a dummy with his name on it was hung from an overpass with a rope around its neck along with a banner with the words “Madrid hates Real.” That was before a derby against Atletico Madrid. Police have yet to find the people behind that act.Jordán, who is white, has suffered from fan violence related to the derby.
The game was suspended when the incident occurred. Jordán was not able to play when the game was resumed a day later, with Betis winning.Sevilla called the act a “repugnant attack against the honor and dignity” of Jordán, who has played 183 games for Sevilla and helped it win the Europa League.
