Vinicius Junior learned about his origins. The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) has launched a campaign to encourage national team players to learn about their roots. The genetic testing company AfricanAncestry helped her with this.
Real Madrid and Brazil winger Vinicius Junior passed a DNA test. It turned out that his ancestors lived in Cameroon. The football player was officially presented with a certificate informing about this before the match with the Uruguay national team (1:1).
Vinicius Junior truly wants to honor his roots. However, like many people of African descent, his ancestral history was erased by racism and the legacy of slavery.
Thanks to a DNA test, we found out that Vinicius Junior`s ancestors belong to the Cameroonian Tikar tribe.
We are honored to share the African roots of Vinicius Junior and his family. "We believe that Viney`s reconnection with his African roots is a powerful act of resistance linked to his advocacy for social justice on and off the football field, " said AfricanAncestry President Gina Page.
CBF head Ednaldo Rodriguez noted that the initiative aims to reaffirm the commitment to the fight for an inclusive society in Brazil and in world football.
