Leeds goalkeeper Kiko Casilla received an 8-match suspension.
The goalkeeper was punished for racially insulting striker Charlton Jonathan Leko during a team match in September.
The 20-year-old footballer told the referee about this, and he added information to the match report. Casilla is also fined £ 60,000.
The Football Association of England (FA) has been investigating what happened since November. The organization contacted lip reading experts as well as a Spanish translator to clarify the situation.
Kiko Casilla is a student of Real Madrid, he was in the club system from 2003 to 2007, as well as from 2015 to 2019.
England reacts very sharply to racism in football. Let’s at least try to figure out why.
