Tottenham Hotspur's Rodrigo Bentancur will serve the final two matches of his seven-match ban after the Football Association dismissed his appeal, confirming the severity of his suspension.
The Uruguay midfielder was handed a seven-match ban after using a racial slur about his teammate Son Heung-min on television, a decision Spurs accepted yet contested regarding its harshness.
Despite the domestic ban, Bentancur was allowed to participate in the Europa League, as the suspension exclusively affects competitions within England.
The ruling comes just before crucial matches for Spurs, as Bentancur faces critical absences against Manchester United and Liverpool, impacting the team's performance.
