Crystal Palace striker Connor Wickham has been banned for three games by the Football Association due to violent conduct.
News of the sanction came on Friday via the FA’s official website. The punishment has been handed out after an incident involving the forward and Tottenham Hotspur defender Jan Vertonghen during the meeting between the sides on January 23.
The ban comes into effect immediately, meaning Wickham will be unavailable for the Eagles’ FA Cup tie with Stoke City on Saturday.
