Tottenham Hotspur’s Rodrigo Bentancur will serve the final two matches of his seven-match ban after the Football Association dismissed his appeal.
The Uruguay midfielder was given the ban in November for using a racial slur about team-mate Son Heung-min on television.
Spurs accepted the judgement but appealed against the severity of the suspension.
However, the appeal was dismissed following a hearing and Bentancur will miss matches against Manchester United in the Carabao Cup and Liverpool in the Premier League.
The former Juventus midfielder has been able to play in the Europa League during his ban as it only applies to domestic competition.
