The 27-year-old will return to action on boxing day
Tottenham midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur has been given a seven-match domestic ban by the Football Association for using a racial slur about team-mate Son Heung-min.
Bentancur, who has also been fined £100,000, was charged by the FA in September after comments made while appearing on TV in his home country of Uruguay in June.
Ouma has been on song for IF Elfsborg in the Europa League this season, which has attracted the interest of several clubs in England, includig Manchester United, Spurs and even Brentford.
“Rodrigo Bentancur denied this charge, but the independent regulatory commission found it to be proven and imposed his sanctions following a hearing,” said an FA statement as reported by the BBC.
The 27-year-old will not return to domestic action until December 26, missing Premier League matches against Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea, among others, plus Spurs’ League Cup quarter-final against Manchester United.
