EURO 2024: UEFA HANDS BELLINGHAM ONE-MATCH BAN, £25,000 FINE
Jude Bellingham has been cleared to play in England’s Euro 2024 quarter-final against Switzerland by UEFA.
The England midfielder, who scored a sensational bicycle kick in the last-16 victory over Slovakia to take the tie into extra-time, was investigated by UEFA over a gesture he made after his celebration.
According to SkySports, Bellingham has been handed a suspended one-match ban and a £25,406 fine.
UEFA says the ban “is not immediately enforced and is subject to a probationary period of one year”.
The Football Association has also been fined a total of £9,312 for crowd disturbances (€10,000) and the lighting of fireworks (€1,000).
England’s full squad trained on the eve of the Euro 2024 quarter-final against Switzerland, including full-back Luke Shaw.
Gareth Southgate’s side head to Dusseldorf looking to set-up a semi-final clash against Turkey or the Netherlands.
All 26 players trained at their Blankenhain basecamp on Friday before travelling to the capital of North Rhine-Westphalia.
Shaw is pushing to make his first appearance for club or country since sustaining a hamstring issue in February.
