England and Atletico Madrid footballer Kieran Trippier has been suspended from playing football for 10 weeks.
The player also cannot take part in any football related activity. The former Tottenham Hotspur defender was found guilty of breaching Football Association’s (FA) betting rules on four occasions in 2019.
The player has also been subjected to a fine of £70,000 ($94,000) for the said misconduct. The suspension will be effective from December 23, 2020.
According to Gambling Insider, Trippier denied seven breaches, which were alleged to have taken place in July 2019, then requesting a personal hearing. The independent regulatory commission found that four of the alleged breaches were proven, although three were dismissed.
