Jude Bellingham will not escape, at least for now, the two-game suspension imposed on him by the Disciplinary Committee for his expulsion and subsequent disrespect to the referee in Pamplona.

This Friday, the Appeals Committee rejected Real Madrid's appeal regarding the matter.

According to the court, the evidence provided by the Merengue club (claiming that the Englishman said "fuck off" and not "fuck you") is not enough to discredit the referee's report.

What does the Appeals Committee say exactly?

"From the repeated viewing of the audiovisual evidence, the same unequivocal and undisputed contradiction cannot be deduced."

The two-game suspension for Bellingham for attitudes of contempt or disrespect towards referees is thus maintained, although Real Madrid can still appeal the penalty to the Sports Arbitration Tribunal.
