FIFA has rejected an appeal by Argentina midfielder Leandro Paredes but reduced the suspension of another Argentine player as the cases head to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
The decisions come after the World Cup final on July 19, 2026, in New York, where Spain faced Argentina. The match featured Spain's Gavi and Argentina's Thiago Almada and Paredes. The disciplinary matters are expected to be heard by CAS in the coming weeks.
