Javi Gracia will

not be able to coach Valencia this Sunday at the Alfredo Di Stéfano against

Real Madrid

.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (

TAD

) has not granted him the precautionary suspension of the two-match sanction imposed by the

Competition Committee

.

Nor will he be able to line up

Hugo Guillamón

, who will have to fulfill one.

The origin of this sanction is in the yellow card that the central defender saw in the duel against Atlético in Mestalla last November.

Guillamón was booked for delaying his change when he was to be substituted due to injury.

The Federation's Integrity Committee viewed the images and opened a file for both of them upon understanding that Gracia was telling the defense, through another teammate, to force a card, the fifth of the cycle, to serve the sanction while he recovered.

This practice, common in other seasons, has become

prohibited by the

federal

regulations

since last summer.

Specifically in

article 112.3

: "The footballer who during the game causes the fifth warning to which this article merits, may be sanctioned, in addition to the sanction provided for in the first paragraph of this article, with an additional game suspension and an accessory fine in the amount of 600 euros In order to determine the intention of the player, circumstances such as the nature of the game rule violated, the attitude of the player during the match, etc. To this end, the The referee of the match will be empowered to record such circumstance in the arbitration act ".

Ferro's debut

After Valencia has exhausted all resources, Gracia will have to be in the stands against Real Madrid and Celta de Vigo, while Guillamón's withdrawal will cause Ferro's debut against Real Madrid.

The young center-back arrived on loan from Benfica on the penultimate day of the winter market and will be Gabriel Paulista's partner.
