According to the source, the reason for the investigation is Montero's involvement with the company Talentus Sports, which provides consulting and sports management services, with La Liga, UEFA, Atlético, Manchester City, and PSG among its clients.

During the investigation, which examines whether the company’s activities affected the referee's work quality, Montero himself has been temporarily suspended from football.

Recall that recently Montero officiated the La Liga match between Osasuna and Real Madrid, in which he sent off Bellingham for a like.
