The England and Tottenham star was handed a one-match ban by the FA for a social media post mocking the deadly Covid-19.
The World Cup star wasn’t left of the hook as he was charged on February 26 with misconduct and after the hearing, he was handed a one-game ban with a £50,000 fine.
The statement from the FA read: “Dele Alli has been suspended for one match with immediate effect, fined £50,000 and must undertake a face-to-face education course following a breach of FA Rule E3.
“The Tottenham Hotspur FC player denied that a social media post breached FA Rule E3(1), as it was insulting and/or improper and/or brought the game into disrepute, and constituted an “Aggravated Breach”, which is defined in FA Rule E3(2), as it included a reference, whether express or implied, to race and/or colour and/or ethnic origin and/or nationality.
“However, it was subsequently found proven by an independent Regulatory Commission.”
