Spurs appeal over length of Rodrigo Bentancur ban for Son Heung-min comment

Tottenham have appealed against the length of ban imposed on midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur for comments he made about team-mate Son Heung-min.

The Football Association announced on Monday that the 27-year-old Uruguay international would serve a seven-match domestic suspension, covering six Premier League fixtures and a Carabao Cup quarter-final against Manchester United.

Bentancur was charged with misconduct in September over a television interview he gave in his home country in June, with the reference to Son’s race making it an aggravated breach.
