Vinicius returns to the spotlight in the latest news of Real Madrid as he faces a two-match suspension or more after being sent off in the Real Madrid-Villarreal (1-0) match on October 10. The report by Díaz de Mera notes a hair pull on Nathan Saliba without the ball in play and Vinicius' subsequent protests, a situation that jeopardizes his participation in the Clásico on October 25.

The incident occurred in the 73rd minute when Vinicius had scored what seemed like Real Madrid's second goal. After VAR intervention, Díaz de Mera reviewed the play, disallowed the goal, and showed a straight red card to the forward for the action against the Villarreal player.

Vinicius, facing a two or three-match ban

The wording of the report places Vinicius in a disciplinary scenario that could exceed the typical suspension for a sending-off. The referee specified that the hair pull occurred with the ball in play but without both players contesting it.

This detail is relevant because Article 130.2 of the RFEF Disciplinary Code stipulates a suspension of two to three matches for violent actions occurring off the ball dispute. If the Disciplinary Committee applies this interpretation, the striker may not serve the entire suspension before the Clásico.

The report also includes what happened immediately after the red card. Díaz de Mera noted that the player continued protesting while on the field and had to be held back by Real Madrid teammates. The referee pointed out that he could not identify any specific words spoken by Vinicius. Real Madrid has an issue with Vinicius and Mbappé.

Real Madrid's schedule jeopardizes the Clásico

The key lies in the calendar. Between the game against Villarreal and the visit to Barcelona, José Mourinho's team only has one LaLiga match: hosting Sevilla on October 18. Hence, a two-game suspension would rule Vinicius out of both that match and the Clásico on October 25 at Camp Nou.

The Champions League matches against Roma on October 14 and RB Leipzig on October 21 would not count toward fulfilling a potential league suspension. The disciplinary ruling will now determine the exact extent of the punishment.

Discontent in Real Madrid

The tension also spread to the bench. Díaz de Mera cautioned José Mourinho and Chendo, while Real Madrid's goalkeeping coach, Nuno Santos, was sent off. Xisco Nadal, the Villarreal delegate, also saw red.

The next step will be the Disciplinary Committee's decision after reviewing the report. The range set for a violent action without ball dispute places Vinicius at risk of a potential two to three-match ban, linking his presence against Barcelona directly to the communicated sanction before the upcoming matchdays.
