(Football news) The All India Football Federation (AIFF) Disciplinary Committee has decided that Kerala Blasters’ Jorge Pereyra Diaz will not be subjected to further sanctions after receiving a red card due to an incident in the Indian Super League match against ATK Mohun Bagan on Saturday, February 19, 2022. 

After being charged for violent conduct, Pereyra Diaz apologised in writing for 'not only acting in a manner which is unbecoming of a professional footballer, but also jeopardising the club’s interests and reputation'. He will now be available for selection in Kerala Blasters’ next match against Chennaiyin FC on Saturday, 26th February.

The AIFF has warned Pereyra Diaz that a 'repeat violation may be met with more severe punishment' when the verdict was passed on Friday. ATK Mohun Bagan’s Prabir Das has also been charged with a similar offence and was also shown a red card in the same match.
