With the imminent approach of the most important match in the world, in Spain they are beginning to pay attention to all the news that arises regarding Real Madrid and FC Barcelona. And now terrible news has arrived in the ‘Casablanca’ thinking precisely about ‘El Clásico’ that will bring a real headache to the coach of the white team, Carlo Ancelotti.

Last weekend, the defender Nacho Fernández caused a tough tackle that cost him a direct red card in the match against Girona FC corresponding to matchday 8 of the Spanish League and now the verdict of the Competition Committee of the Royal Spanish Federation of Football (RFEF), which did not bring encouraging news for the central defender an the white team. According to the disciplinary court bulletin, the white team player will have to serve a three-match suspension in the local tournament, meaning he will miss Real Madrid's following matches against Osasuna, Sevilla FC and FC Barcelona in a new edition of ‘El Clasico’.

Given this terrible news that the headcoach Carlo Ancelotti received, the italian will have a big headache to rebuild the defense for the next matches. The thing is that 'Carleto' has the german Antonio Rüdiger as the only center available and uncertainty still reigns around the recovery of the other centerback, David Alaba, who is injured.

The court's arguments on the sanction against Nacho Fernández

After the harsh challenge that Nacho Fernández applied to the rival, Portu, and earned him a direct red card in the confrontation against Girona FC on matchday 8 of the Spanish League, one of the Real Madrid captains will have to face a sanction that includes a suspension for three games: against Osasuna, Sevilla FC and FC Barcelona, in addition to receiving an accessory fine as established in article 122. The resolution of the Competition Committee does not admit doubts within its arguments: “Three-game suspension, for using dangerous play causing damage that impairs the powers of the offended party, with an additional fine for the club in the amount of 1,050 and 600 for the offender”.
