Atlético de Madrid has no intention of throwing in the towel on the matter of sanctioning Kieran Trippier. The mattress club will resort to the punishment to which the English Federation (FA) has subdued the mattress footballer.
Remember that the FA suspended ten weeks without being able to participate in soccer-related activities, such as playing and training, for breaking the betting rules established by the federation. According to this entity, a person from the player's environment benefited from privileged information about his signing for Atlético and earned a sum of money with it. Something that is prohibited.
The English side also received a fine of 70,000 pounds (77,000 euros). It is assumed that said suspension, which was communicated to the FIFA to be applied in all areas, it can be appealed. And it is what the player and Atlético himself will do, according to the Ace.
Trippier He has denied having participated in this activity, which occurred in July 2019, and having profited from it, as well as anyone around him. An independent commission reviewed the case and, after a personal hearing, with the footballer, they claimed that four of the accusations were true and three were not.
The suspension, which will prevent Trippier play, it is effective as of December 23, after having sent a request to the FIFA, but Atlético will appeal first before the international organization itself and if necessary before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (TAS).
However, in the mattress club they do not see very likely that they will be granted precautionary so that the side plays, much less that they will throw back the decision of the FA. In fact, in the only precedent in this sense, that of Daniel sturridge, not only did his initial penalty not be reduced, but it was increased in the second instance when an appeal was attempted.
HUGE ANGER
Trippier he will miss between 13 and 16 games if the sanction is confirmed. At Athletic they are really annoyed with the FA, because it is a matter that has been taken completely outside the club itself, which has hardly received information in this regard.
Furthermore, at Atlético it is understood that a national federation should not be able to apply a sanction that affects other federations in which a certain player plays. It is an incongruity that he does not play in the Premier and that he is sanctioned to play The league, where the FA it has no decision-making power.
Also, in the Athletic It has been terribly annoying that, oh coincidence, the sanction period coincides with a period without international commitments and that the end of the same coincides with the return of the national team matches. In other words, he would miss all the matches of the mattress team but could be called by England to play their matches already in March. Amazing.
What does rule out the Athletic is to sign someone to replace Trippier, despite the fact that since England
names are already being tried. It is understood that with Sime Vrsaljko and with Ricard Sanchez
, plus any tactical solutions I can handle Simeone, It is more than enough.
