The Spanish Footballers' Association (AFE) said that "at no time" did it request the exclusion of Spanish second division side Reus for the rest of the season. The AFE said in a statement that it is "awaiting the resolution from La Liga's judge of Social Discipline regarding the disciplinary investigation of Reus" (EFE, 1/10).
