Arsenal academy prospect Max Dowman has been suspended for three matches following a red card incident during the Carabao Cup fourth-round tie against Fleetwood Town. The disciplinary commission rejected an appeal against the dismissal, confirming the ban will take immediate effect.
The 17-year-old midfielder was sent off in the match played on October 30, 2026. Arsenal had sought to overturn the decision, but the governing body upheld the original sanction. Dowman, regarded as one of the club's most promising young talents, will now miss upcoming fixtures as a result of the suspension.
