Since then, He has scored seven goals and has given four assists.

This appeal has prospered and UEFA itself has explained through a statement The punishment for the British footballer. “Regarding the punishment, the board of appeals agreed with the FA that the sanction originally imposed on Mr. Sturridge was unduly lenient and, therefore, He increased his sports suspension from two weeks to four months. The board also doubled the fine to 171,872 euros, “said the statement.
