Barça waits for the 'ok' from the RFEF to call up Fermín López

The directive of the FC Barcelona awaits answer of the Real Spanish Federation of Football (RFEF) by the sanction to Fermín López. The mediocentro of 20 years was expelled the Sunday in the Nàstic-Barça Atlètic of the First RFEF and, in principle, would have to be available for the party in front of the Real Betis corresponding to the fifth day of LaLiga, but the club does not want to run risks by a possible undue alignment.

And it is that, in disciplinary terms, the regulation is ambiguous regarding the fulfillment of sanctions in Spanish competitions. In accordance with the section 1 of the article 56, the player will have to fulfil the corresponding sanction in the parties of the same competition in that said infringement was committed. "It understands by same competition the one who corresponds to identical category and division, included, if there were them, so much the tournaments of promotion or permanence, like the second phase". In this sense, Fermín only would be inhabilitado to play this weekend with the filial, but there is another section that contradicts this point.

The RFEF is not clear on the fulfillment of sanctions

In this regard, the section 3 specifies that "when it treat of footballers that could be in accordance with the regulations ranged/ace in other teams of the chain of the main or in any of the teams of a club sponsor, the/the footballer sanctioned/to will not be able to take part in any of these teams or clubs until it pass, in the category in which it committed said infringement, the number of days to that it do merits the sanction".

With this, infers that López neither would be available to play in League or Glass of Rey, although his expulsion produced in the First RFEF. In 2019, the Barça was near to remain out of the Glass by the inclusion of 'Chumi' in the gone of eighth of final in front of the Raise, but the group of Valencia formulated the complaint out of term and there was not sanction. Previously, the central culé had been expelled with the filial.

Xavi will expect by the 'ok' of the RFEF to summon to Fermín

Besides, the section 9 adds: "The sanctions of slight character will fulfil in the competitions in which the/the offender/to finds doing use of a determinate licence and, the ones of grave character or very grave, in any competition". In principle, Fermín only will have to fulfil a party of sanction by the double yellow that saw in front of the Nàstic, but Xavi will expect until having official confirmation to know if it summons him or no for the party of the Saturday in front of the Betis.
