Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham could face serious consequences following his inappropriate behavior in the match against Osasuna.
Details: According to Marca, the "Los Blancos" star is at risk of a lengthy suspension for insulting the referee. However, Real Madrid plans to file an appeal in hopes of overturning the red card and avoiding a ban.
The club claims that Bellingham’s words at the time of the incident do not match what was recorded in the referee’s report.
Reminder: The length of Bellingham’s suspension will depend on how his words are officially documented in the referee’s report. If it is proven that he insulted the referee, the Englishman could be sidelined for anywhere between 4 and 12 matches.
So far this La Liga season, Bellingham has played 20 matches for Real Madrid, scoring 7 goals and providing 6 assists.
