Real Madrid's fines revealed: From 250 to 3,000 euros Real Madrid Cuatro reveals part of the dressing room's code

At all football clubs there is a fine system to ensure that the players stay in line, yet it still comes as a shock when you see the fines at elite sides.

Deportes Cuatro has gained access to Real Madrid's disciplinary fines, which range from 250 to 3,000 euros depending on the rule breached.

Lateness is costly

According to these documents, players must show up at least 45 minutes before the start of training.

Being five minutes late will cost 250 euros, with the fine jumping to 500 euros if they are 15 minutes late, and up to 1,000 euros beyond that.

Unjustifiable absence from training will set a player back 3,000 euros.

Mobile phones on silent

Also, there is an emphasis on the misuse of mobile phones in some situations, such as on the stretcher while being attended by the physios or in the bus or in the dressing room, as the phones should be on silent.

It starts with a fine of 250 euros which, if they are a repeat offender, could rise up to between 500 and 1,000 euros.

Weight, leaving Madrid, commercial events, interviews...

Furthermore, Deportes Cuatro revealed that the players will pay 250 euros if they are not weighed, which is mandatory once a week, and exceeding the weight that is deemed acceptable could rise to 1,000 euros in the case of repeated offence.

In addition, the documents provided show that Real Madrid players have to notify their coach if, on a day off, they decide to leave the Spanish capital, as well as inform the club of any interview or commercial activities, which will have had to have been approved by Los Blancos beforehand. Fines in this case can reach up to 1,000 euros.

Other rules drawn from these documents:

- Injured players must remain at Valdebebas until the end of the season, unless given permission by the doctor and the coach.

- Players not called up must be in the dressing room with the team before the start of the game and remain in the stadium until at least 10 minutes before the match finishes.

- Visitors are not allowed in the rooms whilst travelling or away with the team.

- Press conferences must be conducted in official club attire.
