While Real Madrid's apology aimed to address the uproar, it has fueled further discontent among Chinese fans, who view it as insufficient and region-specific.
Posted exclusively on the club's Weibo account, a platform primarily used in China, the statement has not appeared on Huijsen's Instagram, Twitter, or the club's international channels.
This has led to accusations of a "China-only" response, with many labeling it as performative and insincere.
The incident unfolded late on Saturday when Huijsen, a 20-year-old Dutch-Spanish player with over 5.2 million Instagram followers, reposted the film review of an Asian movie.
The post's accompanying image featured malicious screenshots from a comment section, including phrases like "Even Chinese call him Chinese" and "You could blindfold him with dental floss". The latter remark is widely seen in Western contexts as a derogatory slur mocking Asian eye shapes, specifically targeting Chinese or East Asian physical features.
Huijsen deleted the repost shortly after it sparked outrage, but he did not initially issue a public apology on his personal accounts.
