Tottenham are expected to appeal against Rodrigo Bentancur’s seven-match suspension for a racist remark made about team-mate Heung-Min Son in a TV interview.
Spurs are understood to be appealing the length of the Football Association ban rather than the verdict. The 27-year-old was also fined £100,000.
Bentancur has been sanctioned over comments he made in an interview aired on Uruguayan TV in June.

we're definitely living in a woke nonsense world.. They all look the same and he's right
I was watching kdrama.. and i thought Son had multiple twins
Ban that fraud
I’m Korean. We all make mistakes and learn to better ourselves. Rodrigo’s penalty is too harsh. There was no malice. One or two game suspension should be sufficient as precedent.
Great look Spurs
Shouldn’t have been fined and banned in the first place! Is humor illegal in the UK?! What’s going on over there…?
Some off these South American players have a history of this culture! Then they act like it’s a mistake, they grow men fully aware of their actions!!
I think this was way too strong. I support Arsenal, but I have to admit that he didn't think he was being racist. It was a stupid joke about Asians looking the same. He probably joked with Son to his face about this in the past.
he said cousin of son and their blood related make them looks almost the same doesn't mean racist, if he said any korean then only it is a big issue
He wasn't wrong though just stated a fact
Spurs telling the world their stance on racism then
I think this is stupid. Son said himself that Rodrigo apologized to him for what he said, and he forgave him. Son says that Rodrigo is not a racist, that should be the end of it.
There is hypocrisy around the world on this matter. I’m an African man living in us . All my white or Caucasian brothers have confessed to me that we black peoples looked like the same. They were having hard times especially with height and size.
Are they racist?
Why insulting your teammates
Everyone is so sensitive now 😂😂
It should be increased to 20 and extended to more Tottenham players for all i care😂😂😂,,,, Arsenal fans,,I hope am speaking your mind???😅😅😅
We wait to see what happens next
It was a non-issue. He apologiesd to Son. It was a joke. People can't even make jokes these days smh. I am eastern Asian btw.
good on them it's way over the top considering others got away with nothing
As a @arsenal fan i say Spurs dont bother appealing it let him serve 7 game ban he deserves it for being racist 2wards his own spurs team mate Sonny.
Appealing against a punishment that your player got for racially abusing his team mate. Spurs dropping to a new low!
He even apologies why so many matches ❤
Let’s give racism the red card??
No. Wait. Let’s downplay it instead. 😅 sky sports is becoming a joke like mainstream media.
Sensitive
NOT A RACIAL SLUR.
It's a joke.
Well this doesn’t make any sense. Yes he was wrong about the racism to son but why are they appealing??
Just looking at some other content on sky sports and, can anyone tell me why they turn the comments section off on certain stories ?
Spurs should not appeal they should let this go they are sending a different message I wonder who is advising them
They gave suarez a 8 match ban after he rattled the whole united defence and had fergie and evra crying
Love it when institutions feel the need to get offended on the behalf of the so-called victims.
