It was ahead of Sunday's match against Atletico Madrid that Barcelona confirmed the suspension, when she was missing from the team lineup. Coach Pere Romeu says that the club has appealed.
The club has appealed, but we have not received any response yet. To avoid using an unauthorized player, we thought it was best that she was not included, he says according to Sport.
León has continued to deny the allegations, and claims that she did not do anything wrong.
"I have in no way violated my colleague Daniela Caracas by touching her groin, and I had no intention of doing so. There was absolutely no contact with her private parts and there was no intention to do so either", she said in a statement on Barcelona's website after the incident.
