10月8日，24直播网独家披露，据西班牙《每日体育报》透露，关于埃尔南德斯·埃尔南德斯将担任国家德比裁判的传闻在马德里引起了广泛讨论，然而，这一传闻已被官方否认。
在体育赛事的巅峰对决中，国家德比无疑是其中最为瞩目的盛事之一。这场赛事的独树一帜之处在于，整个赛季中仅此两场对决。在这两场对决中，有一位裁判员因其关键作用、引发的争议以及可能带来的影响而显得尤为突出，他就是即将执掌本赛季首场国家德比的裁判——亚历杭德罗·埃尔南德斯·埃尔南德斯。据马卡电台周三上午报道，这位裁判将在10月25日周日晚9点于诺坎普球场主持这场备受瞩目的比赛。
档案VAR账号对西甲裁判表现的专项评论和纠正中，驳斥了相关传闻，强调该裁判并非本次赛事的指定人选。该账号与西班牙裁判技术委员会保持紧密联系，并明确表示，技术委员会尚未召开会议，故尚无定论关于谁将执裁这场至关重要的比赛。此外，《每日体育报》从足协官方渠道获得的消息称，新的裁判委派政策已实施，裁判人选仅在赛前24小时内对外公布。
在传闻可能将委派埃尔南德斯·埃尔南德斯担任裁判之际，众多皇马支持者纷纷对他表达了强烈的不满，用词包括“不利消息”、“不当裁决”、“你将犯下大错”。埃尔南德斯·埃尔南德斯在其裁判生涯中已执法过六场国家德比，其中巴萨以三胜两平一负的成绩略占上风。然而，尽管马德里阵营有所抱怨，争议双方实际上表现得相当旗鼓相当。
On April 23, 2017, Barça secured a hard-fought 3-2 victory at the Bernabéu, reigniting the title race, with a memorable strike by Messi in the 93rd minute, where he celebrated by showing his jersey to the Real Madrid stands. The match was marred by a controversial elbow from Marcelo, which caused Messi to bleed, and Casemiro's foul, which occurred while he was already on a yellow card, halting a counter-attack. In 2018, he was assigned to officiate the Camp Nou Derby, where the teams ended in a 2-2 stalemate. Possible fouls prior to Barcelona's goal and Alba's alleged handball led to fury among Real Madrid fans, culminating in Barcelona's championship win in La Liga that year. The latest controversy unfolded in 2025 at the Montjuïc Olympic Stadium during the Derby, with the league title ultimately awarded to Barcelona. However, a scene etched in the memory of Barcelona fans was the ball clearly striking the arm of Chouamine inside the penalty area, yet referee Hernandez Hernandez failed to award a penalty.
尚无确切信息透露国家德比的裁判人选，但一点是肯定的，即无论最终谁执裁，双方球队均难以达成一致。
