SkySports suspends Carragher over spitting incident

Ex-Liverpool captain, Jamie Carragher has been suspended from his role as a pundit and commentator for Sky Sports until the end of the Premier League season.

Carragher’s suspension came as a result of his spitting at a 14-year-old girl following the Reds 2-1 loss at Manchester United on Saturday in the Premier League.

The former England international was removed from Sky’s football coverage and the company will conduct a review prior to the beginning of next season “to establish whether Carragher is fit to return”.

“Jamie has taken full responsibility for what has happened and we will ensure he gets the help he needs to guarantee something like this never happens again,” a Sky statement read.

“Before the start of the next season we will sit down with Jamie to discuss whether he is ready to return to his role.”

Meanwhile, Carragher was also dropped by Danish broadcaster TV3 for their coverage of United’s Champions League defeat to Sevilla on Tuesday night.
