An arbitral controversy shakes Spain since the Real Madrid match against Espanyol Barcelona: the Merengues had reproached the referee for not even consulted the Var after an assassin tackle on Kylian Mbappé. This weekend, during the meeting against Osasuna, the White House again insurgent, this time after the decision of the man in black to exclude Jude Bellingham. The Englishman would have had vulgar remarks directed towards the referee. The latter says that the midfielder launched him a “Fuck You”, while the player claims to have said “Fuck off”, a gross expression, but not insulting in this context.

The fact remains that the former Borussia Dortmund was expelled and was waiting to know the duration of his sanction. And Marca has just revealed it: Jude Bellingham received two suspension games. The Spanish media claims that Real Madrid intends to appeal this decision. In the current configuration, the number 5 would miss the reception of Girona this Sunday, as well as the trip against Betis, on March 2.
