Bad news for Real Madrid. The club will be private one of its best elements for the next two Liga matches. For good reason, Jude Bellingham had received a red card during the game against Osasuna after a virulent exchange with the referee of the match. During this exchange, the English attacking midfielder would have launched him “Fuck You” before being expelled. The player had then challenged this decision by indicating that he had said “Fuck off” (a phrase often used by Premier League players but who remains insulting).
Call refused
Real Madrid then decided to appeal the decision to try to reduce or cancel the initial decision. The verdict has been returned today: the player will indeed be suspended two matches. He will miss the meetings against Girona and Real Betis. The club call was refused because there was no clear proof showing that the Englishman said ” fuck off “: ” Based on the images and expertise provided by Real Madrid, it was not possible to prove that he said 'FUCK OFF 'instead of' fuCK you'”.
Note that Jude Bellingham will also be suspended during the round of the round of the first leg which will oppose Real Madrid to his neighbor Atletico. He will however be able to compete in the semi-final go to the king's cup against Real Sociedad next Wednesday.
