Real Madrid are pondering the prospect of placing sanctions against Gareth Bale for missing too many games this season.
The Welshman has often claimed about discomfort with his back before key games, including the 4-0 loss to Barcelona last month.
Carlo Ancelotti wanted to count on him for a few games, but was frustrated to see Bale rule himself out citing injury.
The winger has already been removed from the squad to face Espanyol on Saturday, a game in which Madrid can seal the La Liga title.
Bale is expected to leave Real in the summer after his contract expires and could even retire if unable to help Wales qualify for the Qatar World Cup.
