Bellingham has been given a suspended one-match ban as a result of a gesture he made in the round of 16 win over Slovakia.
The ban has been suspended for a year and he has also been fined £25,400.
Bellingham stated post-game that his gesture was "an inside-joke gesture towards some close friends who were at the game", stating that he had "nothing but respect for how Slovakia played.”
In contrast to Bellingham being permitted to play on Saturday, Turkey defender Merih Demiral has been handed a two-match ban for a gesture he made in their win over Austria
