Real Madrid defender Raul Asensio is facing further trouble after the club decided to open disciplinary proceedings against him. This follows his recent conviction for driving under the influence of alcohol, which resulted in a fine and an eight-month suspension of his driving license.
Club Responds to Off-Field Incident
According to reports from Cadena COPE, Real Madrid has initiated an internal disciplinary file against the young player. The club is expected to impose a significant financial penalty, although the exact sanction has not yet been officially confirmed.
Journalist Melchor Ruiz reported that the Spanish giants have opened the file in accordance with the institution’s internal regulations. The decision comes as the club views the player’s actions as negligent behavior that could damage the of Real Madrid.
Player Informed the Club
Real Madrid was already aware of the situation, as Asensio himself informed the club about the incident. Now, depending on the severity level determined by the club, a financial penalty or other sanctions stipulated in the internal rules may be applied.
Precedent Set by Previous Fines
This is not the first time Real Madrid has taken disciplinary action against its players. In a previous incident last season, following a physical altercation between Aurelien Tchouameni and Federico Valverde, the club imposed fines of €500,000 on each player.
