Mohamed Elneny: Arsenal loanee handed three-match ban in Turkish Super Lig

Besiktas midfielder Mohamed Elneny has been handed a three-man ban by the Turkish Football Disciplinary Board for violent conduct towards his opponent.

Elneny, who was making his debut against Gazisehir Gaziantep in the Turkish Super Lig on Saturday, received a straight red card following an incident with Nigeria's Olanrewaju Kayode in the 75th minute.

Although both players were sent off by the referee, the disciplinary body during its review on Thursday, gave the Arsenal loanee and Kayode further punishments.
