S. Aurier received an official punishment from PSG

The "Paris Saint-Germain" defender Serge Aurier, who criticized his teammates and coach Laurent Blanc, has been suspended for three weeks. Due to the incident on February 13th, when he used the Periscope program, the Ivory Coast national team player will now have to train with the club's reserve team until March 20th. The French champions' coach had already expressed his anger towards the player earlier and mentioned that Aurier would not escape the consequences. However, the player immediately publicly apologized, but PSG was not willing to back down. Therefore, the African returned to the team only before the national team break. "At a time when 'Paris Saint-Germain' must remain focused on crucial dates, the club management has decided to protect the professional group from any possible disagreements and has decided that Serge Aurier will represent the CFA (the club's second team) from Monday, February 29th, until Sunday, March 20th," PSG said in a statement. "At the same time, the player offered to help the 'Paris Saint-Germain' club charity fund in every way." The defender will miss several matches due to the punishment, including the UEFA Champions League match against London's "Chelsea."
