Vinícius Júnior was handed a four-match suspension by the Disciplinary Committee of the Spanish Football Federation, meaning he will miss Real Madrid’s Clásico against Barcelona.
According to the ruling, two of the matches stem from pulling Saliba’s hair, which was characterized as “violent conduct,” while the other two were imposed for the protest that followed.
As a result, the Brazilian star will not be available for Real Madrid’s matches against Sevilla, Barcelona, Racing Santander, and Valencia, leaving a significant gap in the Madrid team’s attack ahead of a particularly demanding stretch of games.
