STJD gives Allan minimum ban, midfielder no longer misses Corinthians | OneFootball

Defensive midfielder Allan will not face any further absences for Corinthians after the trial at the Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD). In a session held this Friday (24), the 3rd Disciplinary Committee decided to impose only a one-match suspension on the player for the gesture considered obscene in the match against Fluminense, in the Brazilian Championship.

As the athlete had already served the automatic suspension in the following round, against Internacional, he is cleared to play normally in the team’s upcoming matches.

During the trial, Corinthians’ defense highlighted that Allan spoke publicly after the incident, showing remorse. In addition, the club stated that it had taken internal measures, including a financial penalty for the player, reinforcing that the case was handled in a disciplinary manner on different levels.

The argument presented also took into account the midfielder’s record, with no recurring incidents of indiscipline, which contributed to the decision for the minimum penalty provided for in the Brazilian Code of Sports Justice (CBJD).

The incident that led to the sending-off happened in the second half of the 3-1 defeat to Fluminense at the Maracanã on April 1. After a disagreement with an opponent, Allan made a gesture that drew complaints from rival players. Initially shown a yellow card, the midfielder had the play reviewed by the video assistant referee and was ultimately sent off directly after the on-field review.

The episode also had repercussions in later Corinthians matches. In the derby against Palmeiras, defensive midfielder André Luiz was involved in a similar situation and was likewise punished with a one-match suspension, which has already been served.

With the STJD’s decision, Allan is once again available to the coaching staff with no disciplinary issues related to the case pending.
