English FA rescind Kamaldeen Sulemana’s red card against Leicester City

Ghanaian winger Kamaldeen Sulemana will be available for Southampton’s match against Ipswich Town following a successful appeal of his red card.

Late in the game against Leicester City over the weekend, the Black Stars attacker was sent off for a contentious foul on defender James Justin.

The verdict was reversed by the review team after the Saints appealed it.

Southampton manager confirmed the availability of Sulemana and defender Jan Bednarek for Tuesday’s game.

“Flynn Downes came off and is a bit doubtful for tomorrow. It’s not going to be a long one, but it’s touch and go for tomorrow,” he said in a pre-match presser.

“Jan Bednarek is back in the squad and we won our appeal with Kamaldeen, so Kamaldeen is in the squad which is good news.”

Sulemana was only making his first appearance of the season in the game last Friday after fully recovery from an injury that kept him out since the start of the new campaign.

He missed the games against the Central African Republic and Liberia during the international break.
