Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur has been banned for seven domestic matches, fined £100,000, and ordered to attend an education programme after being found guilty by the FA of using a racial slur about teammate Son Heung-min of South Korea during a TV appearance in Uruguay in June.
Despite denying the charge, an independent regulatory commission upheld it. Bentancur, who has featured 15 times for Spurs this season, will miss key Premier League clashes and the League Cup quarter-final but remains eligible for Europa League games.
