Rodrigo Bentancur has been handed a four-match from international football for his role in the altercation that ensued after Uruguay’s Copa America semifinal against Colombia, The Sun have confirmed.
The Sun have now confirmed that Nunez has been hit with a five-match international ban while the Tottenham midfielder will miss four games for his country.
Mathias Olivera, Ronaldo Araujo and Jose Gimenez have been hit with three-match suspensions each.
None of these suspensions are applicable at club level.
Spurs Web Opinion
This is not bad news for Spurs at all as Bentancur will stay back at Hotspur Way and get some rest during the international break rather than flying halfway around the world to play two matches.
