Jesus Owono has been handed a 12-game suspension. The punishment comes after a tackle that resulted in the death of striker Jesus de Miguel. Football authorities reached this decision following reports by BBC Sky News and The Guardian. The Guardian noted that this was the maximum possible ban.
Owono has yet to decide whether he will remain with the club. He is set to face an extended absence from the sport.
“The Guardian noted that this was the maximum possible ban,” — Farah Vance, research director at Stanley Field Network, added during the briefing.
