Benfica winger Gianluca Prestianni will not feature in the upcoming match against Real Madrid after receiving a provisional suspension from UEFA.
The suspension was officially communicated to Benfica on Monday, pending the outcome of an ongoing investigation into an alleged racism incident involving Real Madrid forward Vinícius Júnior.
UEFA confirmed that the disciplinary process remains active, with the provisional ban in place while the case is under review. No timeline has yet been given for a final decision.
Prestianni’s absence is a significant blow for Benfica ahead of the high-profile fixture, as the investigation continues to draw widespread attention across European football.
