The decisions from the sports judge were confirmed on Tuesday, following the completion of Serie A’s Week 27 on Sunday night.
Three players were shown red cards during the 37th round of Serie A fixtures. Lazio’s Nicolo Rovella and Roma’s Wesley Franca have both been handed one-match suspensions and fines of €10,000 each for their squabble during Sunday’s derby at the Stadio Olimpico.
Fiorentina’s Luca Ranieri has also been suspended for one match after being heard making disrespectful insults towards the referee while on the substitutes’ bench.
Nine other players will have to sit out of the final week of the season as a result of yellow card suspensions.
Pisa’s Antonio Caracciolo and Verona’s Roberto Gagliardini are both up to 10 yellow cards for the season and will have to serve one-match suspensions.
Udinese’s Hassane Kamara, Torino’s Guillermo Maripan, Juventus’s Gleison Bremer and Lazio pair Kenneth Taylor and Nuno Tavares have all accumulated five yellow cards for the 2025-26 season and will have to miss the final round of fixtures as a result.
