Rodrigo Bentancur Receives Seven-Game Ban for Racial Comment

Rodrigo Bentancur, the Uruguayan national player for Tottenham Hotspur, has been suspended for seven matches by the English Football Association due to a racially insensitive remark made during an interview. The incident arose from a June video where he stated that South Koreans ‘all look the same,’ referring to his teammate Heung-Min Son. Along with the suspension, Bentancur has been fined £100,000 and has publicly apologized multiple times.
