Matheus Cunha BANNED & hit with hefty fine as FA finally confirm Wolves star's punishment after his ugly clash with Ipswich security guard

Premier League

Wolverhampton

Arsenal

Liverpool

Ipswich

<p>Cunha has been in red-hot form for Wolves this season but will miss their next Premier League game against Nottingham Forest as well an FA Cup clash against Bristol City. He has also been slapped with an £80,000 ($100,000) fine. Following the 2-1 loss to Ipswich earlier in the month, the Brazilian's frustrations spilt over and sparked a brawl between several members of staff involving both clubs. Cunha was spotted elbowing an Ipswich security guard in the face and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/video-matheus-cunha-rips-glasses-ipswich-security-staff-wolves-threat-fa-punishment-chaotic-scenes-scuffles/blt3239a3e4a9517cee" target="_blank">snatching his glasses</a>, while Rayan Ait Nouri was also sent off after the final whistle.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>After confirming the ban and fine, an FA statement added: "The forward was charged with misconduct and it was alleged that he acted in an improper manner after the final whistle. He admitted the charge and the sanctions were subsequently imposed by an independent Regulatory Commission. Full written reasons for this case will be published in due course."</p>

WHAT THE FA SAID

<p>The 25-year-old's ban may have come at the perfect moment for Wolves. Cunha was withdrawn at half-time during the recent 2-2 draw with Tottenham, with head coach Vitor Pereira confirming after that the striker said he felt tightness in his hamstring and did not want to risk anything. There is a chance Cunha may not have played for at least the next match against Forest anyway.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>There have been plenty of rumours linking <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/arsenal-problem-solved-eye-january-move-wolves-matheus-cunha-mikel-seeks-new-striker/bltaca1decdd6841bc4" target="_blank">Cunha with a move away</a> from Wolves in January. His performances on the pitch have drawn interest from Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester United. </p>
