Liverpool starlet Suso fined £10k for calling Jose Enrique 'gay' on Twitter

Tuesday, December 18, 2012


The 19 year-old has also been warned about future conduct by the FA.

Liverpool midfielder Suso has become the latest high-profile to get into trouble with Twitter.

The 19 year-old has been fined £10,000 and warned about his future conduct by the FA after he called team-mate Jose Enrique 'gay' in November.

Suso posted a photo of Enrique having his teeth whitened with the comment: "What f*** is he doing? This guy is gay... he does everything except play football."

The attacking midfielder later deleted the tweet and uploaded the photo with a different comment, saying: "I dunno what to say..."

Suso has now been reprimanded for the remark.

The FA said in a statement: "Following an independent regulatory commission hearing yesterday (Monday, December 17 2012), Liverpool's Jesus Fernandez Saez (Suso) has been fined £10,000 and warned as to his future conduct for a comment posted on Twitter.

"The charge, which the player admitted and requested a paper hearing, was that he acted in a way which was improper and/or brought the game into disrepute in that the comment was posted on his Twitter account and included a reference to a person/s sexual orientation and/or disability."
