Ribery did not have his best day last Sunday. Against Lazio, he has ended up being sanctioned for pushing the linesman Matteo Passeri while protesting the action of Ciro Immobile's goal, a goal that meant the defeat of the Fiore in 89th minute.
The action was punished on Monday by Serie A. The Sports Judge of the Italian League imposed a penalty of three games to the former player of Bayern, in addition to an economic fine of 20,000 euros.
Thus, Vincenzo Montella will not be able to count on Ribéry, a new signing for this season, in the matches against Sassuolo, Parma and Cagliari. His reappearance would already take place on Matchday 13 during his team's visit to Hellas Verona.
The sanction came shortly after the 36-year-old French winger's public apology on Twitter: "I apologise to my team-mates, the coach, the fans and also to Mr Passeri because at the end of the game I was very upset and I hope you can understand what my mood was".
