Real Madrid has been hit with another setback as they contest the two-match ban imposed on their English star, Jude Bellingham. According to Fabrizio Romano, the club is appealing the decision made by the competition committee.
Romano stated on his X (formerly Twitter) account: “Based on the images and expert analysis provided by Real Madrid, the club could not prove that Bellingham did not directly insult the referee during the match against Osasuna.” He added that Real Madrid’s appeal is unlikely to succeed, as the competition committee assumes the referee’s report to be accurate.
Bellingham received a straight red card in the 40th minute of Real Madrid’s 1-1 draw against Osasuna in La Liga’s 24th round. The suspension has come as a blow to the team, especially as the English international narrowly avoided a harsher penalty, which could have ranged from 4 to 12 matches, as reported by Spanish newspaper, Marca.
Real Madrid is now preparing to face the consequences of the suspension, which could impact their performance in the upcoming matches in Laliga.
