A fine of 255 euros
According to RMC Sport, the suspension is accompanied by a fine of 255 euros, which the media outlet describes as derisory. RMC Sport describes the whole thing as a lenient sanction, which has sparked reactions. The outlet does not specify who reacted, nor in what terms.
What the Federation accused the player of
According to France 24, the Federation had opened disciplinary proceedings against the player. He had left the national team following an argument with the coach at the end of September. RMC Sport specifies that this departure, described as sudden, occurred in the middle of the Nations League campaign.
Less severe than expected
France 24 reports that the media expected a penalty that could reach a maximum of six months. The 30-day suspension therefore remains significantly lower than this ceiling.
What is unknown
The two media outlets do not say which matches the player will miss because of this suspension. They also do not specify the grounds used by the Federation to set the duration of the penalty.
