A Spanish public prosecutor has asked for a seven month jail term for Atletico Madrid's 20-year-old defender Lucas Hernandez for domestic abuse.
Hernandez was arrested here following an incident with his girlfriend Amelia Lorente, reports Xinhua news agency.
Lorente was taken to hospital for treatment for several minor injuries while Hernandez spent the night in a police cell.
Lorente will also face domestic abuse charges, with the prosecutor asking for her to be given a seven-month jail term and to pay a fine of 10 euros a day (around $11 dollars) for a two-month jail term.
The couple were also given a mutual restraining order forbidding them from being within 500 meters of each other and from establishing contact by any means for the next two years.
