Turkish Federation Fines ISAAC PROMISE =N=0.9 Million, Banned For Three Games

The Turkish Football Federation has rejected the appeal of Antalyaspor not to suspend the Nigerian striker Isaac Promise for three matches.

Recall that the Beijing Olympic silver medalist was sent off at the end of the first half in the fourth round of games against Galatasaray, which automatically earned him a suspension.

Isaac Promise has also been fined 10,000 Turkish Lira (equivalent of 4,500 euros) by the Disciplinary Committee.

The 24 - year- old striker, who arrived Antalyaspor in the summer transfer market as a free agent, is now ineligible to face Menemen Belediyespor(September 26th) and Elazığspor (September 30th).

This is not the first time Promise has been dismissed in Turkey. Last season, then on the payroll of Manisaspor, he was shown a red card by referee Cuneyt Cakir after 45 minutes. He also took an early shower in the 2009 - 2010 and 2005 - 2006 seasons.
