Valencia fans, by and large, harbor deep resentment towards the club's owner, Peter Lim, whom they blame for the club's severe financial crisis. Two devoted fans of "Los Murciélagos" have now found themselves in a difficult situation due to their beliefs.
Details: According to Marca, Valencia fan Dani Cuesta and his wife traveled to Singapore, Lim's home country, to spend their honeymoon.
However, when the couple was set to leave the country, local authorities confiscated their passports and placed them under custody.
It turns out that during their honeymoon, Cuesta had taken a photo holding a "Lim go home" banner, which he posted on social media. He also put a sticker with the same message on the doors of Lim's residence.
As a result, Lim filed a complaint against the couple for property damage. The Spanish consulate in Singapore is currently working to resolve the situation and secure the couple’s release.
Reminder: Earlier, a former president of Valencia made a racist remark directed at Vinícius Júnior and Real Madrid as a whole.
