Jobe Bellingham has been slapped with a ban after being sent off during Borussia Dortmund’s draw with Freiburg in the Bundesliga. Bellingham’s miserable start to life in Germany continued on Sunday as the 20-year-old was shown a straight red card in Dortmund’s disappointing 1-1 draw.

The youngster joined the Bundesliga side from Sunderland in the summer after playing a starring role in the Black Cats’ promotion.

Following his direct red card against Freiburg, the German Football Association (DFB) has now imposed a two-game suspension on the Englishman.

This means Bellingham will miss Dortmund’s next two Bundesliga clashes against Borussia Monchengladbach on Friday and against Eintracht Frankfurt on January 9.
