Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez receives a six-month ban for driving


CARDIFF, Wales — Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez has been banned from driving for six months for traffic offences in Wales.

Fernandez, 23, did not appear in court on Wednesday for sentencing. He had been found guilty earlier this year on two counts of failing to identify the driver of a Porsche Cayenne.

The driver of the car allegedly ran a red light in the town of Llanelli in November and was caught speeding in Swansea last December.

It was not proven that Fernández was the driver of the vehicle.

Fernandez, who played for Argentina in Colombia on Tuesday, was the registered owner of the vehicle but did not respond to police requests for information.

He was also ordered to pay £3,020 ($4,000) in fines and costs.
