The problem arises from the matches played this season, where behaviors such as throwing objects, improper chants, or the use of flares would have been recorded, according to UEFA rules.
The proposed fine, which includes 30,000 euros for the home match and 20,000 euros for the away match, reflects UEFA’s increasingly strict stance against this type of incident.
The Lions, who have always stood out for their identity and massive support, now await the final decision, which could arrive in the coming days.
