West Ham winger, Kudus Mohammed, has received an additional 2-game ban after he received a red card in a match against Tottenham last month.
Now, the player suffers a total of 5-game ban and is ruled out to play for the Hammers until December.
The player has already missed games with Manchester United and Nottingham Forest due to the initial ban, which was to end this weekend in the Everton-West Ham game.
The added two-game suspension now means he will miss out him on the Newcastle game on Monday, November 25, and a home game against Arsenal on Saturday, November 30.
Aside from the ban, he has also been fined £60,000 as a penalty for his unsportsmanlike behaviour.
Kudus’ foul on Micky van de Ven in the 82nd minute of a 4-1 defeat sparked a melee between the two sets of players, with the Dutch defender claiming the winger “punched him in the face”.
The player was initially shown a yellow card by referee Andy Madley, but this was later upgraded to a red for violent conduct following a VAR check, earning the player an automatic three-match ban.
He was later hit with another violent conduct charge by the Football Association, which has now handed down the additional sanction.
