The Argentine defender was sanctioned due to his behavior following the red card he received in the 2-1 defeat against Liverpool in the Premier League last month. At the time, Romero was sent off for accumulating two yellow cards, but instead of leaving the field, he remained to discuss with the main referee. The Federation classified this behavior as “inappropriate”. The defender has already served his original one-game suspension against Crystal Palace on December 28, but will now miss another match and face a €57,000 fine.
