Juventus forward Yildiz suspended for two Serie A games

Kenan Yildiz will miss two key Serie A matches for Juventus against Bologna and Lazio after being sent off against Monza.

Juventus forward Kenan Yildiz will miss his side's Serie A games against Bologna and Lazio after being handed a two-game ban.

The suspension was confirmed by an Italian sports judge on Tuesday following Yildiz's red card against Monza last weekend.

Yildiz was sent off for violent conduct in Juve's 2-0 home win against bottom side Monza on Sunday.

The 19-year-old, who has also been fined €10,000 (£8,500), elbowed Monza midfielder Alessandro Bianco in the face before half-time.

Juventus travel to fifth-placed Bologna on Sunday before visiting seventh-placed Lazio six days later in what could be decisive encounters for the Turin side in the race for Champions League qualification.

The absence of Yildiz is a major blow for coach Igor Tudor, as the Turkiye international's 46 appearances in all competitions this term are two more than any other Juve player. 

Yildiz's 12 goals and assists combined, meanwhile, are bettered only by Dusan Vlahovic (19), while his 56 chances created represents a team-high tally.
