(Reuters) - Fiorentina playmaker Borja Valero is angry over the referee's report which led to his four-match Serie A ban, saying on Wednesday that it was "not even close to reality" and had damaged his personal integrity.

The Spaniard was sent off near the end of Monday's 2-2 draw with Parma along with opponent Gianni Munari following a scuffle among the players. He was given a four-match suspension after a disciplinary tribunal said he had pushed his opponent and referee Andrea Gervasoni.
