Authorities are set to impose sanctions on Real Madrid fans involved in racially abusing Barcelona players.
Lamine Yamal was also a victim of the racial abuse during the recent El Clasico.
The investigation, which has drawn criticism for its slow pace, has now identified several culprits, as reported by Relevo.
Standard penalties for such offenses typically include a €4,000 fine and a one-year stadium ban.
However, due to Yamal’s status as a minor, two fans who directed abuse at him will face increased fines of €5,000.
Real Madrid have reportedly cooperated with the investigation, leading to the expulsion of two club members, with further action expected as the investigation progresses.
The racial abuse targeted Yamal, along with teammates Raphinha, Ansu Fati and Alejandro Balde.
Despite the incident, Barcelona players silenced the abuse with a stunning 4-0 win on the night.
