Sad about his dog one week, trying to make extra cash another. Daniel Sturridge has been banned from football for six weeks.
Sky Sports reported Thursday Daniel Sturridge landed in hot water after trying to unlawfully earn his family member some easy money. Because of his stupidity, he has now been banned from football for six weeks, even before making a switch to any club.
Aside from the half-dozen weeks he must spend on the sideline, he will be hit with a heavy fine of £75,000. From trying to make an extra buck illegally, he now ends up losing money. Moreover, after the charges were dropped by the Regulatory Commission, the FA have announced they will be appealing the dismissed charges.

"Daniel Sturridge has been fined £75,000 and banned from playing football until July 31 after being found guilty of breaching the FA’s gambling regulations. Sturridge has been given a six-week ban, four of which have been suspended until August 31, 2020, meaning he is free to play football again from July 31 in the event he commits no further breaches of FA’s guidelines."
Nine of the eleven chargers were dropped by Regulatory Commission and the FA are not having it.
"The Commission also found that, in issuing that instruction, Sturridge had provided his brother with inside information for that purpose.The FA respectfully disagrees with the Regulatory Commission’s findings and will be appealing against the charges which were dismissed and the sanction which was imposed.

Nothing to do with Liverpool – Thankfully
Thankfully both Liverpool and Sevilla are not involved in the scandalous acts of the player and no bad karma will be returning to them, as both clubs are well on their way in their preseason preparations.
The Reds have already had such problems in the past with Sturridge and appear to be in a far better position without him on the roster. Already a player that struggles to make the starting eleven because of being injury-prone.
Now he shaves some more weeks off his already short playing career. This saga is far from over and only once the appeal by the FA has been sorted out, will he then be able to find a club. Imagine any club wanting such drama now?
Imagine a manager wanting to disrupt their schedule ahead of a new campaign, just before the first game?
