Nicolas Jackson has received a two-match ban after being sent off for violent conduct during his team’s encounter with Bayer Leverkusen.

The punishment was confirmed following a review by league authorities, making the decision final. Jackson was shown a red card in the heated match after an incident officials classified as violent behaviour.

The suspension means the forward will be unavailable for upcoming Bundesliga games against Union Berlin and SC Freiburg.

His absence is expected to impact the team’s attack during a key phase of the season. Jackson has been a vital part of the frontline, and his unavailability will require adjustments from the coaching staff over the next two fixtures.

He will only be eligible to return after serving the suspension.

Club officials have not challenged the ruling, indicating the matter is settled. Jackson is now expected to focus on regaining match fitness and returning once the ban is completed.
