Lewis Macari, grandson of Manchester United icon Lou, has been handed a suspended three-month ban for breaching the FA's betting rules.

Macari, 23, plays for Notts County after coming through the youth system at Stoke City.

Earlier this year, he was charged with 354 alleged breaches of the rules covering a period between February 25, 2020 and December 4, 2022.

Those were in relation to bets he was said to have placed during his time at Stoke, while he also wagered on darts and horse racing.

However, the 23-year-old - who was found to have spent around £3,000 gambling with a net loss of approximately £470 - was not involved in any of the 44 Stoke matches he bet on.
