Ethan Mbappé, the 19-year-old younger brother of Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappé, has been banned for three games in the Champions League following his red card in a match against Real Betis. The ban was imposed by UEFA after he was charged with "assaulting another player" for striking Betis defender Natan with an elbow during the Spanish side's 3-2 win at Lille.
The incident occurred three weeks ago, but the punishment was only announced yesterday. This is just the third Champions League game for Ethan Mbappé. He will miss Lille's visit to Arsenal on October 13, as well as their hosting of Galatasaray and their away game at Bodø/Glimt. Ethan Mbappé can return to action on November 25 when Lille hosts Bayern Munich, as they will be co-hosting the European Championship qualifiers with Albania and Serbia.
