Ángel Correa of Atlético Madrid could be handed a lengthy suspension following his red card in the La Liga match against Getafe, which ended in a 2-1 defeat for the Rojiblancos. The Argentine forward's outburst at the referee has put his immediate future in doubt.

Correa initially received a yellow card for a rough challenge on Djené Dakonam, but after a VAR review, the decision was upgraded to a red. The 28-year-old reacted furiously, directing a stream of expletives at referee Guillermo Cuadra Fernández. Teammates had to intervene to prevent the situation from escalating further.

As a result of the automatic suspension, Correa will miss Atlético's upcoming home match against Barcelona. However, according to reports from Marca, his ban could be extended due to the severity of his actions. The Spanish Football Federation is expected to review the incident, and Correa could face a ban of up to four matches or even more, depending on how seriously the league views his behavior.

Some sources suggest that Correa's season could be over if the disciplinary committee decides to impose a maximum penalty of 12 matches. This would be a significant blow to Atlético, who are already struggling to keep pace in the title race.
