Real Madrid have filed a complaint against the referee who took charge of Saturday’s game at Osasuna for omitting alleged racist abuse towards forward Vinicius Jr from his match report.
The club say the “insults and vexatious shouts” were “deliberately” not included by Juan Martinez Munuera.
Vinicius has suffered racist abuse on multiple occasions in Spain over the past three years.
Real have demanded that “necessary measures be taken” to “eradicate” the abuse.
The Spanish Football Federation’s technical committee of referees has been contacted for comment.
Real said: “The referee voluntarily and deliberately omitted the insults and vexatious shouts directed repeatedly towards our player Vinicius Jr, despite these being insistently pointed out by our players at the very moment when they were taking place.
“Real Madrid once again condemns these violent attacks of racism, discrimination and hatred, and demands that the necessary measures be taken, once and for all, to eradicate the violence that our player Vinicius Junior has been suffering.”
The 23-year-old scored twice in a 4-2 win that moved Real Madrid 10 points clear at the top of La Liga.
Los Blancos have also added the incident to a complaint initially filed to Spanish legal authorities on Friday over alleged racist insults towards Vinicius by Atletico Madrid and Barcelona fans.
A video on social media appears to show Atletico Madrid fans chanting a racist slur before their Champions League game with Inter Milan on Wednesday, while Real allege there were similar chants from Barcelona fans before their encounter against Napoli the previous day.
