Sevilla sports chief Victor Orta has been banned for two games for abusing ref Jesus Gil Manzano.

It was last Saturday night where, after defeat for Sevilla, at the Sánchez-Pizjuán against Girona, the sports director called referee Gil Manzano a "s***hole", according to the Extremaduran's minutes.

Orta has denied having used that word. But the suspension stands and he will not be able to be involved against Atlético de Madrid and Las Palmas.

Orta left Leeds this summer for Sevilla.
