Mattéo Guendouzi suspended after provocations against Olympique Lyonnais

Mattéo Guendouzi, 27 years old, is currently barred from the Champions League after provoking Olympique Lyonnais during the knockout victory, where the scores were 1‑1 then 2‑1. The midfielder continues his appearances in the league with Fenerbahçe.

The sanction applies only to the European competition, the player remaining available for Turkish league matches. The Turkish club has not indicated any additional disciplinary sanction.

The provocations took place during the second leg of the knockout round, where Fenerbahçe overturned a first‑leg 1‑1 draw to win 2‑1. This turnaround allowed the club to qualify for the group stage.

Guendouzi will have to wait for the next round of the Champions League to return to the pitch, if the club retains its qualified status. In the meantime, he continues to accumulate minutes with Fenerbahçe in the Süper Lig.
