Ghana defender Andy Yiadom risks costly suspension if he receives yellow card in next Reading game

Published on: 27 April 2023

Ghana international, Andy Yiadom must avoid receiving a yellow card in the remaining three matches of the English Championship season.

The Reading FC man is expected to start for the team on Saturday, April 29, when his team takes on Wigan Athletic at the Select Car Leasing Stadium.

This season, Andy Yiadom has been a key man for his team and has featured in every game unless he was injured.

For a captain who gives everything on the pitch, the Black Stars full-back has 14 yellow cards this season.

According to the FA Rules for the English Champions, another yellow card for the player will mean he will be suspended for three matches.

Should Andy Yiadom pick a yellow card in the next match against Wigan Athletic, he could miss the next two matches of the season which will be key for FC Reading in the fight to escape relegation.

In addition to the two match bans, the defender will also miss the first match of Reading FC next season should he reach the 15 yellow cards.

Knowing this, the 31-year-old must be at his best on Saturday for the Wigan game while playing with caution as well.
