The Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is suspended and fined €40,000 (£37,000) for his conduct in the Gunners’ 3-0 win at home to AC Milan, when a four-goal victory was needed to reach extra-time.
Adding on to this news,"The Arsene Wenger is going to appeal against this ban of three matches and fine of 40,000".The side needed to win 4-0 to take the match to extra-time but were unable to score the crucial fourth goal despite leading by three at half-time.
The Frenchman was suspended for two matches by the football governing body earlier in the season, after the Gunners' Champions League qualifier against Udinese, but on that occasion the fine was less than £10,000, which was to be paid by Arsenal.
A statement on Uefa’s website read: “Arsenal FC manager Arsene Wenger has been suspended from carrying out his function for three Uefa competition matches by the Uefa Control and Disciplinary Body.
“The suspension applies to the next three UEFA club competition matches for which Wenger will be eligible.“Wenger has also been fined €40,000 (£37,000). He was facing a charge of improper conduct in relation to the Uefa Champions League round-of-16 second leg against AC Milan in London on March 6.
“An appeal may be lodged against the verdict within three days of the dispatch of the reasoned decision.”
If the Gunners finish third in the Premier League this season then their manager would miss half of their group-stage matches in next season's competition.
