Sevilla FC: Youssef En-Nesyri risks big! – Media7
Youssef En-Nesyri, Sevilla FC striker, risks a severe sanction after his virulent criticism of the refereeing following his team’s defeat against Villarreal (2-3) on May 11. His statements could earn him a suspension of several matches, as well as a heavy fine.
Reviews of Arbitration by En-Nesyri
Following Sevilla FC’s defeat against Villarreal, En-Nesyri expressed his dissatisfaction with the refereeing, particularly targeting referee Diaz de Mero. “We suffered a lot. We lacked concentration, but we also suffered from the referee. He must whistle well, not in their favor. He had to call the last foul,” he said.
Reaction from the Royal Spanish Football Federation
The Royal Spanish Football Federation (FREF) was quick to react to the Moroccan striker’s comments. According to the Sport media, the FREF Disciplinary Commission is currently examining these declarations, with a view to possible sanction. According to the RFEF disciplinary code, this type of public criticism can result in a suspension of 4 to 12 matches and a substantial fine.
Potential Impacts on Sevilla FC
A suspension of En-Nesyri would represent a hard blow for Sevilla FC. En-Nesyri, a key part of Sevilla’s attack, is reportedly missing his team during a crucial period of the season, potentially affecting their La Liga performances and goals.
En-Nesyri’s Statements on Spanish Arbitration
En-Nesyri also criticized refereeing in Spain in general, saying that Sevilla FC are often disadvantaged by refereeing decisions. “The truth is that we suffer a lot from some referees here in Spain. All season they have been doing bad things… The truth is that we have to find a solution or something for the referees, who are always against Sevilla,” he added.
Precedents in La Liga
This is not the first time that a La Liga player has found himself in such a situation. Several players have already been sanctioned for similar criticism of referees, underscoring the seriousness with which the FREF treats these incidents.
Youssef En-Nesyri, through his criticism, has highlighted a perceived problem within Spanish refereeing, but must now face the consequences of his comments. Sevilla FC, for their part, are preparing for a possible suspension of their star striker, which could affect their La Liga ambitions.
