UEFA Hands Jude Bellingham Suspended Ban and Fine for Unsportsmanlike Conduct
English midfielder Jude Bellingham has been fined €30,000 and given a suspended one-match ban by UEFA for unsportsmanlike conduct during England's Euro 2024 match against Slovakia
The incident in question occurred after Bellingham scored an overhead kick in stoppage time, and he was seen making a crotch-grabbing gesture towards the Slovakian bench. While Bellingham later clarified on social media that the gesture was an inside joke directed towards friends in attendance, UEFA deemed it a violation of their disciplinary regulations.
The suspended ban will be enforced if Bellingham commits another infringement within the next 12 months. However, he will be eligible to play in England's upcoming match against Switzerland.
