Juventus forward Yildiz suspended for two Serie A games

Juventus Vooruit Kenan Yildiz will miss the Serie A matches against Bologna and Lazio after he has received a ban from two games.

The suspension was confirmed on Tuesday by an Italian sports judge after Yildiz's red card against Monza last weekend.

Yildiz was sent on Sunday for violent behavior in the 2-0 home win of Juve against Bottom Side Monza on Sunday.

The 19-year-old, who also received a fine of € 10,000 (£ 8,500), elbow Monza midfielder Alessandro Bianco in the face for the break.

Juventus travels to the fifth placed Bologna on Sunday before visiting the seventh placed Lazio in what decisive encounters for the Turin side could be in the Race for Champions League qualification.

The absence of Yildiz is a big blow to coach Igor Tudor, because the 46 performances of the Turkiye International in all competitions are two more than any other Juve player.

Yildiz's 12 goals and assists are now only improved by Dusan Vlahovic (19), while his 56 opportunities represent a team -high count.
