GIANLUCA PRESTIANNI will be interviewed after UEFA launched an investigation against the Benfica winger.
And the Argentina international could face a 10-match ban if he is found guilty of racially abusing Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr.
UEFA were quick to act by appointing an inspector to look into the shocking scenes in Tuesday's Champions League playoff tie.
European football's governing body will also speak to Vinicius Jr, his teammates - including Kylian Mbappe, who said he heard the remarks - and all the players near the incident.
