Ex-Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge has been banned from football for four months for breaching betting rules.

He was originally given a six-week ban last summer, four of them suspended, but the FA appealed against the findings of an independent commission.

An appeal board also doubled the 30-year-old's fine to £150,000.

It was announced on Monday that Sturridge's contract with Turkish side Trabzonspor had been terminated by mutual agreement.
