They have reached the Copa del Rey final and have a good chance of advancing to the UEFA Champions League semi-finals. With a 2-0 win over Chelsea in the first leg of their quarter-final tie. However amidst these vital times, Valverde is on the brink of facing suspension.
Credit is due to several players for stepping up this season for Real Madrid despite injuries and a lack of squad depth. One standout player is Federico Valverde, who has excelled whether played as a midfielder or winger. Valverde has taken his game to the next level. He contributed 12 goals and 5 assists in 46 appearances this season according to Transfermarkt.
Valverde’s impressive performances this season have been a significant improvement compared to the previous campaign. In which he only managed to contribute a single goal and a couple of assists. However, his streak of good form might face a halt as he faces a potential suspension in the near future.
For how long will Valverde face the suspension?
GOAL has reported that Federico Valverde may face a suspension ranging from four to 12 games. This might be the result for allegedly punching Alex Baena following Real Madrid’s match against Villarreal on April 9.
