Michael Keane

Everton defender Michael Keane (33) will serve a three-match suspension after the club’s appeal against his red card in Wednesday’s Premier League match against Wolves was rejected by an FA panel. Everton confirmed the decision with disappointment, maintaining that the incident did not meet the threshold for violent conduct and that the action was neither forceful nor intentional. The club also expressed surprise at the severity of the punishment, highlighting Keane’s disciplinary record and high professional standards. As a result, the centre-back will miss upcoming fixtures against Sunderland, Aston Villa and Leeds United. (Source: Everton FC News)
