HAMBURG (Reuters) – Europe’s football governing body UEFA handed a two-match ban to Turkish soccer player Merih Demiral for a politically-charged “wolf” celebration and fined England’s Jude Bellingham 30,000 euros ($32,469) for a crotch-grabbing gesture at Euro 2024.
Bellingham was also given a one-match suspension in principle, but UEFA said that would not be immediately enforced and would be subject to a one-year probationary period.
