Real Madrid have taken unprecedented disciplinary action following the incident involving Valverde and Tchouaméni. The club has imposed a €500,000 fine on each player, a sanction that reflects the seriousness with which the situation has been handled internally.

Both players reportedly appeared before the club’s disciplinary officer, admitted their mistakes, expressed regret over what happened, and apologized to each other, the club, their teammates, the coaching staff, and the supporters.

Despite the financial punishment, Real Madrid have decided against imposing sporting sanctions. Neither Valverde nor Tchouaméni will be suspended or excluded from selection, meaning both remain available for Álvaro Arbeloa ahead of El Clásico and the remainder of the season. Valverde, however, is expected to be sidelined for between 10 and 14 days due to injuries sustained during the altercation.

The club also released an official statement regarding the matter:

"Real Madrid CF announces that, following the events that led to the opening of disciplinary proceedings yesterday against our players Federico Valverde and Aurélien Tchouaméni, both appeared today before the investigating officer.

During the appearance, the players expressed their deep regret for what happened and apologized to each other.

They have also apologized to the club, their teammates, the coaching staff and the fans, and both have made themselves available to Real Madrid to accept whatever sanction the club deems appropriate.

Given these circumstances, Real Madrid has decided to impose a financial penalty of five hundred thousand euros on each player, thus concluding the corresponding internal procedures."
