fuera de juego: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española explica que los fuera de juego y los fueras de juego son plurales adecuados de la expresión el fuera de juego, empleada en el ámbito deportivo […] La expresión fuera de juego puede interpretarse como locución fija, en cuyo caso el plural se mantiene invariable (los fuera de juego); pero también como una combinación libre de varias palabras (fuera más de más juego), que formaría el plural de forma regular: los fueras de juego, donde el adverbio fuera funciona como sustantivo, motivo por el que se puede pluralizar. 4, record 1, Spanish, - fuera%20de%20juego
