Real Madrid fans try to sue Florentino Perez over Copa del Rey shambles

Two Real Madrid fans have filed a lawsuit against Real Madrid president Florentino Perez. Catalan laywer Felipe Izquierdo is representing Raul Gimenez Guillem and Susana Castano Caba, two fans of Los Blancos who claim they have been "affected financially and morally" by the club's elimination from the Copa del Rey against Cadiz, thanks to the presence of the ineligible Denis Cheryshev.

According to AS, the pair claim: "It is painful to endure being taunted in cafes and our place of work" which has led to "bouts of anguish and helplessness." They are said to be seeking compensation of 500 euros.
