Real Madrid midfielder, Jude Bellingham, has been given a two-match ban for his comments at referee Jose Luis Munuera Montero during their 1-1 draw with Osasuna on Saturday.

Bellingham was shown a straight red card in the first half of the LaLiga fixture.

Montero wrote in his report that the England international said “f*ck you” to him.

But Bellignham has already denied referee, though Bellingham denied insulting him.

However, the Spanish Football Federation, RFEF has hit the 21-year-old with a two-game ban.

Bellingham will now be unavailable for Madrid’s crucial upcoming games against Girona and Real Betis.

Real Madrid, however, intends to appeal the decision, arguing that the red card was unwarranted.

The club maintains that Bellingham’s reaction while passionate, did not warrant such a severe sanction.
