Atletico Madrid It is available immediately
FIFA suspended 10-week ban on Kieran Trippier by the English Football Association (FA) for violating the betting rules.
The FA imposed the ban, which it would have seen Atletico Madrid player banned from playing matches or even training with this club in December.
The England international was sanctioned after close friends bet on his transfer from Tottenham and Atletico in the summer of 2019.
There were questions about the timing of the ban from the FA’s point of view, with Trippier there is no shortage of England games during it.
The right-back should also have withdrawn from the first leg of Atletico’s Champions League in the last 16 games with English club Chelsea.
Since the ban was announced, Atletico he asked for the full statement from the FA, but received no response.
Now, with the suspension of the ban, Diego Simeone will be able to call Trippier immediately, though he is not expected to appear against Alaves on Sunday.
Lifting the ban by FIFA is just a precautionary step, as the issue continues to be investigated.
