Real Madrid is said to have met the Laliga Council of Referee (CTA) and accused of “bias” officials in the middle of the Red Cards line in Jude Bellingham, according to reports from Spain.
The English international was at the center of a controversial maelstrom after receiving the right red card during the clashes of the Spanish giants with Osasuna.
Bellingham would have said “F *** off” in the direction of referee Jose Luis Munuera Montero in the 39th minute of the dead end on Saturday, while Munuera Montero maintained that the 21 -year -old said “ f * ** You “for him, winning him for a coarse or abusive language.
The Los Blancos superstar could still face a ban on up to 12 games for the incident, which saw Bellingham defended with passion by its head coach Carlo Ancelotti – and nicknamed “disrespectful” by the competition manager hated from Real Madrid Barcelona, Hansi Flick.
Real Madrid is believed to be so exasperated by the decision against their player that reports on Monday suggested that the Big Beasts de Laliga are thinking about the remoteness of the Spanish elite.
But officials of the two parties met that day, according to Marca, to discuss the involvement of another of their players – the captain of France Kylian Mbappe – in a fight with Carlos Romero d’Espanyol when the Two teams met at the beginning of the month.

Carlo Ancelotti firmly defended his player in the midst of speculation that the club could change leagues following the arbitration decisions against them
Mbappe was brought back to a cracking tackle by the rival player in the 61st minute of their meeting on February 1, but in a move deemed “ inexplicable ” by Ancelotti after the final whistle, Romero only received A yellow card instead of a straight red.
The defender then stayed on the field to mark the winner of the 85th minute for his team – and to apologize to Mbappe full time for the clumsiness of the challenge.
According to the Spanish point of sale, the sources of Real Madrid shared that “the CTA (denied) a negative bias towards Madrid, but the club sees it, and expressed it as such”.
During the meeting, the audio recordings of the match would have been examined, but despite the evidence of the officiating organization, Real Madrid would not have been convinced.
The club is supposed to plead for a “substantial change” to arbitrate the processes in the high flight, including greater transparency in decision -making.
According to sources, the CTA would be open to changes – but if Real Madrid could still play the Laliga at the time of implementation could be another matter, according to recent reports.
In the midst of the frustrations of the arbitration of decisions, the club should consider a transition to series A, Ligue 1 or the Bundesliga – Italy, France and the respective divisions of Germany – to solve their problems.
However, any potential change in Madrid league should first be approved by FIFA and the respective league that they would ask to join. They would also need UEFA approval to change the leagues.

Bellingham, for his part, is supposed to be optimistic about the avoidance of a long potential prohibition, because he shared his reflections on the incident on social networks.
“Quite said about the misunderstanding,” said Bellingham in a message to the supporters. “I just wanted to apologize again for having left my teammates in such a difficult position and thank fans for their support and understanding.
“See you Wednesday at home”.
The player can find a consolation in a decision rendered to his compatriot Mason Greenwood last season, who saw a red card given to the former Manchester United Academy star during his visit to Getafe overturned on appeal.
Greenwood was sent by Jorge Figueroa Vasquez in an ardent defeat 2-0 by Rayo Vallecano in January 2024, the match manager claiming that the Marseille striker shouted ‘F *** You’ ‘.
However, Getafe chose to appeal the decision at the time after believing that he had not evacuated his frustrations to the referee, but rather by saying “F *** Sake!”.
The Spanish FA then canceled the decision after noticing that Greenwood had in fact sworn in the number of times it had been the victim of a fault, rather than aiming a deliberate X directly in Vasquez.
“The task of this disciplinary body is not to fear correspondence, without determining, if necessary, the existence of a manifest material error in the description of the action arbiter,” said the Spanish FA.
“ The repeated visualization of images, in fact, allowed this committee to conclude, without a doubt, that the action which led to the expulsion did not occur as described by the arbitrator and, finally, Proves that the material error is manifested in the arbitrators in the arbitrators in the reports.
“These images show that the player said” one, two, three, four, f *** “.
